1
00:00:00,070 --> 00:00:02,610
Speaker 1: Coming up on Relatables Baddies Book Club, the king comes

2
00:00:02,710 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 1: back and he's talking to Dorian and Aelin, right? And

3
00:00:08,300 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: he says, so she goes, I take it Kael's dead.

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:13,780
Speaker 1: He goes, my only regret is I didn't get to

5
00:00:13,820 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: spend more time killing him.

6
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,250
Speaker 2: Welcome to Relatables Baddies Book Club, where we will embark

7
00:00:19,570 --> 00:00:21,790
Speaker 2: on a journey reading some of the finest pieces of

8
00:00:21,829 --> 00:00:24,430
Speaker 2: literature you have ever laid eyes, or ears, if that's

9
00:00:24,450 --> 00:00:26,290
Speaker 2: your preferred way to consume a book, on.

10
00:00:26,410 --> 00:00:27,290
Speaker 1: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

11
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,780
Speaker 3: Queen of Shadows, chapter 60 to the end.

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,380
Speaker 1: We finished it. We finished the book. I've got my

13
00:00:35,420 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: cup of tea. I hope everyone has their tea or

14
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:38,580
Speaker 1: coffee to experience the tea.

15
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,019
Speaker 3: I've got a cup of Darcy sitting on my lap.

16
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: Darcy, can't believe he fucking sits on your lap and

17
00:00:43,340 --> 00:00:43,860
Speaker 1: not mine, eh?

18
00:00:43,979 --> 00:00:49,030
Speaker 3: Me and Darcy will listen to Jake recap these very,

19
00:00:49,370 --> 00:00:50,490
Speaker 3: very good chapters.

20
00:00:50,510 --> 00:00:54,750
Speaker 1: Are you happy? Overall, yeah. I would say.

21
00:00:54,750 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 3: 80 out of 10.

22
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,420
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. I'm not going to lie. I didn't actually

23
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:06,380
Speaker 1: fully expect the ending. Yeah, true. Didn't fully expect it.

24
00:01:06,650 --> 00:01:08,630
Speaker 3: I kind of wanted one more person to die just because.

25
00:01:09,530 --> 00:01:12,170
Speaker 1: Someone good. Oh, you mean someone that we like? Yeah.

26
00:01:12,190 --> 00:01:14,390
Speaker 1: So we're a bit heartbroken? Just to feel some emotions.

27
00:01:14,430 --> 00:01:17,690
Speaker 3: Once again, everyone's still alive.

28
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:24,500
Speaker 1: True. Here's my thinking, right? Is we've ended this book...

29
00:01:25,050 --> 00:01:27,550
Speaker 1: On like the high of highs, really. You're really thinking

30
00:01:27,590 --> 00:01:31,550
Speaker 1: about it. So I have a feeling there's three more books.

31
00:01:31,569 --> 00:01:37,050
Speaker 1: They're all long AF. There's going to be at least

32
00:01:37,330 --> 00:01:41,250
Speaker 1: three deaths of people we love. You reckon? That's a

33
00:01:41,290 --> 00:01:43,690
Speaker 1: big call. In the next three books. But Sarah J

34
00:01:43,709 --> 00:01:46,230
Speaker 1: Maas is always bringing the people we love back to life. Yeah,

35
00:01:46,250 --> 00:01:51,490
Speaker 1: but this series to me is not like romancy, fantasy,

36
00:01:52,110 --> 00:01:56,060
Speaker 1: you know, kind of like. Crescent City or Akita, where

37
00:01:56,580 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: in Akita, you read it for storyline, 100%. It's a

38
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,940
Speaker 1: great storyline. But also, you know, the romance plays a

39
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,260
Speaker 1: big part. In this, romance hasn't played a big part.

40
00:02:05,300 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: This is way more just story. Yeah, there's barely any romance.

41
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 3: I'm thinking like a few times that there's going to

42
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,310
Speaker 3: be some little bit of romance and they don't do anything.

43
00:02:14,350 --> 00:02:15,910
Speaker 1: No, they don't do anything at all. Before we get

44
00:02:15,950 --> 00:02:17,690
Speaker 1: into it, I wanted to actually, I found this thing

45
00:02:17,730 --> 00:02:19,050
Speaker 1: a little while ago and I keep forgetting to talk

46
00:02:19,090 --> 00:02:24,690
Speaker 1: about it. It was like an Instagram post. Burp. And

47
00:02:25,290 --> 00:02:29,070
Speaker 1: it is things that romanticist readers just accept as normal.

48
00:02:29,810 --> 00:02:29,950
Speaker 2: Oh.

49
00:02:30,750 --> 00:02:32,930
Speaker 1: No, it's kind of invalid, yeah. The first kiss is

50
00:02:32,930 --> 00:02:37,190
Speaker 1: 600 pages in. Honestly, a little rushed. Rushed? We do

51
00:02:37,250 --> 00:02:39,380
Speaker 1: accept that. No, you and I don't. I would prefer

52
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: it to be quicker. Yeah, you and I don't accept

53
00:02:41,380 --> 00:02:42,980
Speaker 1: that at all. I would prefer it to be quicker.

54
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: A man is 700 years old and she's 22. Keep going. Yep. Yeah. Yeah.

55
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: Nobody can just be named Bob. It's like fucking Zavarin.

56
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: I chose a pronunciation 300 pages ago. It's too late

57
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:58,740
Speaker 1: for corrections.

58
00:02:59,419 --> 00:02:59,660
Speaker 2: Yeah.

59
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: Pet peeve. I hate it when I'm saying something and

60
00:03:01,820 --> 00:03:03,380
Speaker 1: everyone's kind of like, this is how it's pronounced. This

61
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: is how it's pronounced. Just let us be, eh? Yeah,

62
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,980
Speaker 1: just let us fucking be. She hasn't bathed in 12 days.

63
00:03:08,139 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: He buries his face in her neck. Romance is still

64
00:03:10,139 --> 00:03:14,340
Speaker 1: alive and well. Valid. That would stink. Traveling for three

65
00:03:14,380 --> 00:03:17,070
Speaker 1: weeks on horseback and nobody's ass hurts. Not even a

66
00:03:17,090 --> 00:03:19,530
Speaker 1: little bit of chafing. Ooh, I've never thought of that.

67
00:03:19,570 --> 00:03:22,660
Speaker 1: Nobody talks about that. Also in the movies, though. They

68
00:03:22,740 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: act like it doesn't.

69
00:03:25,060 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 3: I rid a horse in Turkey. Not enjoyable at all.

70
00:03:28,820 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: No, it can't be. Have you ridden a horse before?

71
00:03:30,660 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: When I was younger, but nowhere near enough to remember

72
00:03:33,220 --> 00:03:35,180
Speaker 1: what it's like. It was fun for like 30 seconds. Yeah,

73
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,460
Speaker 1: you're kind of like, woohoo! And then there was an

74
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: hour and a half of it. I was like, this sucks.

75
00:03:40,060 --> 00:03:42,210
Speaker 1: Your legs being spread that far, I just feel like

76
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: isn't natural. Not at all.

77
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,890
Speaker 3: And also, being on a motorbike or something, you feel

78
00:03:47,950 --> 00:03:48,450
Speaker 3: in control.

79
00:03:48,930 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: You don't feel in control at all. Fuck, bro. And

80
00:03:51,740 --> 00:03:53,940
Speaker 1: you've watched Yellowstone? Yeah. Those motherfuckers made me want to

81
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: ride a horse. Yeah, yeah. Nothing like that.

82
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 3: I feel like a fucking dweeb on one.

83
00:03:57,860 --> 00:04:00,380
Speaker 1: The fate of the entire kingdom resting on someone who

84
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,420
Speaker 1: learned magic last Tuesday just seems fine. That is every story.

85
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: To be fair, Selina learned magic in like a month

86
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: and she's now just a beast.

87
00:04:09,540 --> 00:04:11,210
Speaker 3: Whenever we have graphs about that, everyone's like, yeah, but

88
00:04:11,230 --> 00:04:12,890
Speaker 3: you don't understand Selina like I do.

89
00:04:12,910 --> 00:04:17,210
Speaker 1: Fuck off. The love interest has murdered hundreds of people,

90
00:04:17,370 --> 00:04:20,010
Speaker 1: but he bought her food and asked who hurt her.

91
00:04:20,390 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: Case dismissed. Fair enough. He tried to kill her. Nobody's perfect.

92
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: Wonder when they'll finally kiss. No one has survived this

93
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: trial in 300 years. She'll be fine. Oh, I guess

94
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,460
Speaker 1: for what we've read, that's kind of like Under the Mountain. Yeah.

95
00:04:37,350 --> 00:04:40,550
Speaker 1: A 40-page glossary at the back. Cool. Apparently this hobby

96
00:04:40,589 --> 00:04:42,010
Speaker 1: has homework. What's a glossary?

97
00:04:43,610 --> 00:04:49,500
Speaker 3: Like, I don't know. Because at the end of the

98
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 3: audio book, there's a 29-minute chapter, but it's all of

99
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:54,140
Speaker 3: Tower of Dawn.

100
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,530
Speaker 1: No, what's the next one? Oh, yeah. No. Oh, what's

101
00:04:58,550 --> 00:05:01,109
Speaker 1: the next one? Tower of Dawn's the last one. Empire

102
00:05:01,130 --> 00:05:03,350
Speaker 1: of Storms? Empire of Storms. Kingdom of Ash is the

103
00:05:03,370 --> 00:05:05,010
Speaker 1: last one. Tower of Dawn is the middle one between

104
00:05:05,029 --> 00:05:07,150
Speaker 1: the last two. Let me have a look. Glossary. What's

105
00:05:07,170 --> 00:05:10,990
Speaker 1: going on here? What the fuck's a glossary? I don't know.

106
00:05:11,029 --> 00:05:15,410
Speaker 1: Darcy's wigging out butt? No, it just says acknowledgements. Anyway. Well,

107
00:05:15,890 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: that was that. That's the shit we all accept. We do.

108
00:05:19,460 --> 00:05:21,460
Speaker 1: But it's time to get into the real shit. Let's

109
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:27,169
Speaker 1: get into the recap. All right. Chapter 60. We ended

110
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,260
Speaker 1: last episode with Rowan takes an arrow for Selina, right?

111
00:05:30,310 --> 00:05:33,630
Speaker 1: Chapter 60. So he's down and out. She's talking about

112
00:05:34,190 --> 00:05:37,890
Speaker 1: feeling the pain, feeling the pain. Anywho, gets him out

113
00:05:37,910 --> 00:05:39,230
Speaker 1: of there. She kind of shuffles him out of there

114
00:05:39,250 --> 00:05:42,290
Speaker 1: and she's all pissed, right? And so then she's kind

115
00:05:42,330 --> 00:05:44,290
Speaker 1: of like gets him over, shoes him over to Adion.

116
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,260
Speaker 1: Turns back and he's like saying, you know, I'm not

117
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,060
Speaker 1: leaving you. And then she's like, you're going. And he goes, okay,

118
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,250
Speaker 1: I'm going. She turns back around and then her and

119
00:05:51,260 --> 00:05:52,810
Speaker 1: Manon kind of look at each other and they're like,

120
00:05:52,830 --> 00:05:57,550
Speaker 1: let's go, us, one-on-one. And then basically they have this

121
00:05:57,630 --> 00:06:01,950
Speaker 1: one-on-one fight and we get the POV of both Manon

122
00:06:02,330 --> 00:06:07,030
Speaker 1: and Aelin. And Manon talks about how a human shouldn't

123
00:06:07,050 --> 00:06:12,570
Speaker 1: move like this, right? And also just... She could pump Aelin,

124
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: but Aelin just is smart at fighting. If she had

125
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,820
Speaker 1: her magic, I think maybe if she could be a failure,

126
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: she might keep up with Manon, but Manon's a beast.

127
00:06:18,620 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: Manon is a weapon. Anywho, they're going about all this

128
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,380
Speaker 1: and like kind of Selene tricks her into like knocking

129
00:06:24,460 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: down all these like big pillars that are holding up

130
00:06:28,260 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: a building. And then Manon knocks them all down. Then

131
00:06:30,460 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: Selene dips and this building just falls on Manon. And

132
00:06:33,140 --> 00:06:36,460
Speaker 1: then fucking for some reason, Aelin- I hated this. So

133
00:06:36,580 --> 00:06:38,930
Speaker 1: Aelin hears Asterin is on the other side of this

134
00:06:38,970 --> 00:06:44,130
Speaker 1: like ravine, right? She screams. She's like, no. And for

135
00:06:44,170 --> 00:06:46,849
Speaker 1: some reason, something clicks in Aelin that's like, oh my God,

136
00:06:46,890 --> 00:06:49,750
Speaker 1: her people love her so much. And she decides that

137
00:06:49,790 --> 00:06:52,890
Speaker 1: there's this like, for some reason, thread pulling at her

138
00:06:52,940 --> 00:06:55,380
Speaker 1: that needs to go save Manon. So she, Manon, so

139
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: everyone gets mad at me about that. So she goes

140
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:02,919
Speaker 1: and saves Manon, goes back and she's now with like, Adion, Rowan, blah, blah, blah.

141
00:07:03,180 --> 00:07:07,180
Speaker 1: They just kind of leave Manon there. And she passes out,

142
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,790
Speaker 1: wakes up and she's like, I owe, I owe, Aelin

143
00:07:10,030 --> 00:07:11,950
Speaker 1: Ashriver Galathinia's fucking life debt.

144
00:07:12,250 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 3: I reckon, like, it was on Aelin to save Manon.

145
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 3: She doesn't owe a shit.

146
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Weird one. Manon has this obligation, like, oh,

147
00:07:20,180 --> 00:07:22,260
Speaker 1: she saved my life. I now owe her my life.

148
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:25,290
Speaker 1: I like it. I'm in life debt. That's cool. It's

149
00:07:25,410 --> 00:07:27,270
Speaker 1: both good morals, but also, like, you just tried to

150
00:07:27,310 --> 00:07:28,510
Speaker 1: kill each other. Yeah.

151
00:07:28,670 --> 00:07:30,770
Speaker 3: You can't just turn that quickly to me. But, like, also,

152
00:07:30,810 --> 00:07:34,550
Speaker 3: you can tell almost... They have respect for each other.

153
00:07:34,590 --> 00:07:36,290
Speaker 3: It's almost like Aelin's like, I can't let you die.

154
00:07:36,350 --> 00:07:37,330
Speaker 3: Too much of a good fighter.

155
00:07:37,450 --> 00:07:41,030
Speaker 1: Yeah. No. She's such a, obviously she's good. Aelin didn't

156
00:07:41,050 --> 00:07:43,790
Speaker 1: know that. You want the good fighter to die. That's competition. Yeah.

157
00:07:43,810 --> 00:07:46,990
Speaker 1: That's a good point. That's a good point. Chapter 61. Yeah.

158
00:07:47,530 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: Selene is once again wishing that she let Kael die.

159
00:07:49,940 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: Don't even know when she could have let Kael die.

160
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: Or no. Yeah. When could Kael die? Let Kael die. Yeah.

161
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 3: Or that's when Kael ran into the, 13 witches. Oh,

162
00:08:00,820 --> 00:08:02,900
Speaker 3: as in like she didn't save him. Yeah, then Aelin

163
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:03,900
Speaker 3: came in and was just.

164
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,420
Speaker 1: Like, bitch, I killed Bubba Yellowlegs. Yeah, true. She goes,

165
00:08:06,460 --> 00:08:08,620
Speaker 1: at least you're smarter than Bubba Yellowlegs. And that was

166
00:08:08,660 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: what she said. And then Manon goes, what do you

167
00:08:10,110 --> 00:08:12,050
Speaker 1: know of Bubba Yellowlegs? It's like, what do you mean?

168
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,210
Speaker 1: I know she tries to scare for the head, brother.

169
00:08:14,270 --> 00:08:15,330
Speaker 1: What wigged me out about that? I don't know if

170
00:08:15,350 --> 00:08:15,820
Speaker 1: we touched on it.

171
00:08:16,150 --> 00:08:18,290
Speaker 3: They were following Kael because he used to train there

172
00:08:18,310 --> 00:08:20,170
Speaker 3: of Dorian his whole childhood through that forest.

173
00:08:20,570 --> 00:08:22,910
Speaker 1: And then Kael makes the wrong turn. What? I know.

174
00:08:22,970 --> 00:08:25,090
Speaker 1: Why would you mention that he trained there his whole childhood?

175
00:08:25,110 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: That's actually a good, good point. Anywho. We go to

176
00:08:29,460 --> 00:08:33,210
Speaker 1: chapter 6, so they're kind of like, wait, no, Rowan,

177
00:08:33,270 --> 00:08:36,230
Speaker 1: he's dying. Yeah, was there poison on the arrow? I

178
00:08:36,250 --> 00:08:37,050
Speaker 1: don't think it was poison.

179
00:08:37,070 --> 00:08:39,390
Speaker 3: I think it just was like- Because he's human, he's

180
00:08:39,410 --> 00:08:39,870
Speaker 3: a weak dog.

181
00:08:39,970 --> 00:08:43,070
Speaker 1: Yeah, right now he's like, he's fey, but he is

182
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 1: no magic, no healing, basically. So they end up getting

183
00:08:47,740 --> 00:08:53,319
Speaker 1: him to Nezrin's family estate not far away, and he

184
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:57,130
Speaker 1: gets healed by like a midwife. Cool. Chapter 62, Manon

185
00:08:57,190 --> 00:09:01,309
Speaker 1: goes straight From where she was... Finishing a fight with Aelin...

186
00:09:01,130 --> 00:09:03,290
Speaker 1: She flies... And she catches up to the king... And

187
00:09:03,330 --> 00:09:07,670
Speaker 1: his people... She lands... And she goes... How about fucking...

188
00:09:08,130 --> 00:09:10,410
Speaker 1: Have a bit more of a... She's just like... I got...

189
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:14,550
Speaker 1: We got jumped bro... By some rebels... She lied... Don't

190
00:09:14,570 --> 00:09:17,170
Speaker 1: know why... We got jumped... Um.

191
00:09:17,510 --> 00:09:21,690
Speaker 3: Because she felt that... She couldn't... She owed Selina... Yeah true...

192
00:09:21,530 --> 00:09:22,610
Speaker 3: That's what she was saying... Or Aelin the time to

193
00:09:22,650 --> 00:09:25,089
Speaker 3: get away... Because they're human and Rowan... Rowan's slow.

194
00:09:25,429 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: Yeah... So she goes... We got jumped... Um... And then

195
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,580
Speaker 1: she was talking to him about the weapon that her

196
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 1: grandmother made. And she knows that the weapon is like

197
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,780
Speaker 1: these big ass glass towers, right? And they're going to

198
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,850
Speaker 1: be able to, I believe they could use them to

199
00:09:41,929 --> 00:09:45,750
Speaker 1: enhance Kaltain's shadow fire magic. And they could just wipe

200
00:09:45,770 --> 00:09:49,130
Speaker 1: people out. So she's like, just kind of talking to him.

201
00:09:49,210 --> 00:09:52,290
Speaker 1: The king likes her. Talking about this now, knowing stuff

202
00:09:52,330 --> 00:09:53,890
Speaker 1: about the king, it makes me think like the king's

203
00:09:53,929 --> 00:09:55,290
Speaker 1: just such a fucking baby.

204
00:09:55,580 --> 00:09:58,819
Speaker 3: Yeah he's just a fucking little sookie lala.

205
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,339
Speaker 1: He's just a pawn and he acts all tough and

206
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: shit but he's just a pawn anywho and then back

207
00:10:03,940 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: in Morath the lead gets caught by Vernon and puts

208
00:10:06,059 --> 00:10:10,310
Speaker 1: him put in a dungeon okay chapter 63 a lead

209
00:10:10,650 --> 00:10:14,189
Speaker 1: chucked in a dungeon and is told you know I

210
00:10:14,210 --> 00:10:17,110
Speaker 1: was suspect Vernon's like I suspected this witch blood motherfucker

211
00:10:17,610 --> 00:10:20,270
Speaker 1: so in a few days time I'm going to have

212
00:10:20,330 --> 00:10:21,930
Speaker 1: one of these Valk princes come down here and have

213
00:10:21,970 --> 00:10:23,250
Speaker 1: his way with you, all right? Because we're going to

214
00:10:23,270 --> 00:10:25,550
Speaker 1: be getting some fucking babies out of you, Elite. Elite's

215
00:10:25,830 --> 00:10:28,770
Speaker 1: had a terrible run. Yeah, Elite?

216
00:10:29,670 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 2: Terrible run.

217
00:10:32,150 --> 00:10:38,780
Speaker 1: Terrible run, bro. Now, the 13 witches, they get back

218
00:10:38,820 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: to Morath. And then Manon and Asteryn. So Asteryn says, like,

219
00:10:45,370 --> 00:10:49,390
Speaker 1: we need to talk. They fly away. They fly away,

220
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: some field, really nice flower field or whatever. And so

221
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: Astrin's like talking to Manon and she's like, I, she

222
00:10:56,740 --> 00:10:58,340
Speaker 1: just tells her this story that she was never going

223
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: to tell anyone. Basically she was 28 years old when

224
00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: this happened. So this is like nearly a hundred years ago.

225
00:11:03,900 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 1: Manon's never heard about this. So she's 28 years old

226
00:11:05,780 --> 00:11:07,860
Speaker 1: and the witches back in the day, like when magic

227
00:11:07,900 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: was a thing. So they've always gone around just like

228
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: hunting the other witches that put a curse on their land.

229
00:11:12,460 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 1: And so they would all go out on their own.

230
00:11:13,580 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 1: Like the 13 were very rarely together. And so Manon,

231
00:11:17,940 --> 00:11:20,780
Speaker 1: Hearing this story from Astrid, she says, so I was

232
00:11:20,780 --> 00:11:23,540
Speaker 1: 28 years old. I was in a mountain pass or whatever.

233
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:28,750
Speaker 1: And I saw, I met a hunter, human. He lived

234
00:11:28,780 --> 00:11:32,990
Speaker 1: in a cottage and basically fell in love with him, right?

235
00:11:33,490 --> 00:11:35,890
Speaker 1: She stays with him for a while. You know, she

236
00:11:35,929 --> 00:11:37,570
Speaker 1: stays with him for quite a while because it's not

237
00:11:37,730 --> 00:11:39,610
Speaker 1: like they're all immortal. It's not uncommon to not see

238
00:11:39,630 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 1: someone for years. Stays with him and ends up falling pregnant.

239
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,260
Speaker 1: Goes back to Manon's grandmother. And she tells her grandmother.

240
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,660
Speaker 1: And then her grandmother keeps her safe and hidden for

241
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: ages while she's having this baby. Turns out the baby

242
00:11:54,559 --> 00:12:01,300
Speaker 1: dies and her grandmother is furious about it. Beats Astra

243
00:12:01,330 --> 00:12:05,970
Speaker 1: into a pulp, nearly kills her. And she, because it's

244
00:12:05,990 --> 00:12:09,709
Speaker 1: like very, very dishonorable or some shit for the witches

245
00:12:09,750 --> 00:12:11,910
Speaker 1: to lose a witchling because it's like rare to have them,

246
00:12:11,950 --> 00:12:17,410
Speaker 1: I guess. And so basically she beats her up beats

247
00:12:17,429 --> 00:12:19,929
Speaker 1: to a pulp she's like wants to kill her she

248
00:12:19,990 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: hates her um cuts scars into her belly i believe

249
00:12:26,420 --> 00:12:30,460
Speaker 1: the word unclean and man on's like how the fuck

250
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,970
Speaker 1: have i never seen this shit i swear i've seen

251
00:12:31,990 --> 00:12:34,090
Speaker 1: you shirtless but she's like only when she's a kid

252
00:12:34,190 --> 00:12:36,270
Speaker 1: but only when we were witchlings yeah what the fuck

253
00:12:36,309 --> 00:12:38,510
Speaker 1: is this she was 28 at this point yeah witchlings

254
00:12:38,550 --> 00:12:43,490
Speaker 1: anymore then anyway man on it kind of cries a bit.

255
00:12:43,530 --> 00:12:45,050
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe, I don't know if she cries

256
00:12:45,090 --> 00:12:46,870
Speaker 1: or not, but she's kind of the ghost. She's the ghost.

257
00:12:47,070 --> 00:12:49,429
Speaker 1: She goes, you're number two again. Yeah. By the way,

258
00:12:49,630 --> 00:12:53,849
Speaker 1: you're number two. Hates her grandma now. And also the

259
00:12:54,770 --> 00:12:56,619
Speaker 1: reason that Asterin took, takes her out and tells her

260
00:12:56,660 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 1: this story is because she's like, we can't let them

261
00:12:59,780 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: do what they're doing to these witches, to our coven.

262
00:13:03,980 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: And so that was her way of trying to convince her. Anywho.

263
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,190
Speaker 1: So I think that, Well.

264
00:13:08,210 --> 00:13:11,170
Speaker 3: That made Manon see that her grandma was a bitch.

265
00:13:11,270 --> 00:13:13,390
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's made Manon see officially that her

266
00:13:13,429 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: grandma is crazy. Which I predicted. Didn't know how. I

267
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, I think you predicted. I said Manon's

268
00:13:20,340 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: going to see somehow that. Yeah. So then she goes, well,

269
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,110
Speaker 1: they like hatch a plan right then and there. They

270
00:13:28,130 --> 00:13:29,510
Speaker 1: don't tell us about the plan, of course. They never

271
00:13:29,530 --> 00:13:30,750
Speaker 1: tell us about the plan. We only figure out about

272
00:13:30,770 --> 00:13:32,449
Speaker 1: the plan when it's happening, which is annoying because we're

273
00:13:32,490 --> 00:13:34,210
Speaker 1: reading it and we're supposed to be reading their inner dialogue,

274
00:13:34,230 --> 00:13:36,130
Speaker 1: which really annoys me, but it makes the book good,

275
00:13:36,170 --> 00:13:39,930
Speaker 1: I guess. And yeah. They go back to Morath. Astrid's like,

276
00:13:39,950 --> 00:13:41,250
Speaker 1: what are we going to do? And she goes, we

277
00:13:41,270 --> 00:13:42,709
Speaker 1: better talk about this shit. We're going to go back

278
00:13:42,730 --> 00:13:46,990
Speaker 1: to Morath. And yeah, so, and then yeah, Reinstates, as

279
00:13:47,050 --> 00:13:53,429
Speaker 1: I say. Cool. Chapter 64. We have made it back,

280
00:13:54,050 --> 00:13:56,490
Speaker 1: I believe. Yeah, we've made it back to the apartment,

281
00:13:56,550 --> 00:13:59,030
Speaker 1: Selina and crew, Aelin and crew. We've made it back

282
00:13:59,050 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: to the apartment into Rifthalt. And Lysandra and Evangeline is

283
00:14:03,890 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: with them. And Selina, Aelin, kind of. which I haven't

284
00:14:08,020 --> 00:14:09,939
Speaker 1: changed what I call her, she gives Lysandra a note

285
00:14:09,980 --> 00:14:12,900
Speaker 1: and it's a note from Clarice that says, all debts

286
00:14:12,950 --> 00:14:14,790
Speaker 1: are paid and your freedom is yours. Oh my God,

287
00:14:14,870 --> 00:14:19,830
Speaker 1: you're the best ever. And Lysandra's crying. Aelin, fuck you.

288
00:14:19,870 --> 00:14:21,810
Speaker 1: How can you look good while you're crying? Go live

289
00:14:21,830 --> 00:14:25,070
Speaker 1: a good life with blah, blah, blah. And then I'm

290
00:14:25,090 --> 00:14:26,729
Speaker 1: pretty sure it's at this point. I don't remember if

291
00:14:26,790 --> 00:14:29,210
Speaker 1: it happens later, it doesn't matter. But she says, you know,

292
00:14:29,270 --> 00:14:31,790
Speaker 1: I didn't buy you your freedom so I could own you.

293
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: Your freedom is yours and your choice is yours, but

294
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,870
Speaker 1: I will have you know. that Adion told me there's

295
00:14:38,890 --> 00:14:43,710
Speaker 1: a bit of land up in Terrasin that is no

296
00:14:43,770 --> 00:14:45,630
Speaker 1: one's land anymore, which means it's technically mine.

297
00:14:45,890 --> 00:14:47,710
Speaker 3: It was after Aelin becomes the queen.

298
00:14:47,810 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. Or is it now? Ah, okay. Anywho, basically. But yeah.

299
00:14:51,250 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: Aelin is like, yo, we've got some land up there.

300
00:14:56,460 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: It needs a lady. Yeah. It needs a high lady

301
00:14:58,300 --> 00:15:00,540
Speaker 1: or whatever. So that happens a little later, but then...

302
00:15:00,540 --> 00:15:01,979
Speaker 1: She's like, I don't know how to rule. And Selene

303
00:15:02,020 --> 00:15:03,460
Speaker 1: is like, I don't know how to rule either. We're

304
00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: doing it together.

305
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

306
00:15:08,390 --> 00:15:14,570
Speaker 1: All right. Then, for some reason, Astryn and Manon head

307
00:15:14,590 --> 00:15:17,030
Speaker 1: to Rifthold. That was where they got, sorry, that's where

308
00:15:17,050 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: they go from the flower thing. And they're like, Manon

309
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,500
Speaker 1: says to Astryn, we're going to go back to Morath,

310
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,780
Speaker 1: but first we have to go to, we have to

311
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,380
Speaker 1: go to Rifthold. And we don't know why yet. We

312
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,850
Speaker 1: don't know why. Elide's still in the dungeons. She's fucking

313
00:15:31,150 --> 00:15:32,910
Speaker 1: been down there for like four days and she's starting

314
00:15:32,930 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: to accept that like, The 13 don't give a fuck

315
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: about her. They don't actually care. She's stuck down here.

316
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: She's done, done, done, done. This is my life now.

317
00:15:40,260 --> 00:15:43,780
Speaker 1: Chapter 65. Rowan heads up onto the roof because he

318
00:15:43,820 --> 00:15:46,990
Speaker 1: can smell Lorcan. He's up there. He's chatting with Lorcan.

319
00:15:47,110 --> 00:15:49,870
Speaker 1: Lorcan goes, the word hounds, they're dead. Fuck you for

320
00:15:49,890 --> 00:15:55,190
Speaker 1: doing that, by the way. Then they're talking and I

321
00:15:55,290 --> 00:15:58,190
Speaker 1: think they just have a back and forth. I can

322
00:15:58,270 --> 00:15:59,370
Speaker 1: tell they have a bit of rapport.

323
00:15:59,730 --> 00:16:04,450
Speaker 3: I felt like, Lorcan then was like way too understanding

324
00:16:04,510 --> 00:16:04,950
Speaker 3: and nice.

325
00:16:05,460 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: It seems sus to me. Yeah.

326
00:16:07,180 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, when I was listening to it, he's like, oh, yeah,

327
00:16:09,620 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 3: all the word hands, whatever.

328
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,940
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, they're dead. I killed them all.

329
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

330
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: 12 of them. They're dead. Done. Easy. Don't worry about it, mate.

331
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,100
Speaker 1: And I was kind of thinking, this guy's a beast. Yeah,

332
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,180
Speaker 1: that's what I was just saying. I was like, this

333
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,140
Speaker 1: guy's a beast, bro. Bit weird. Everyone's like, Rowan, most

334
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: skilled fucking full-blooded fey. Clearly, this Demi fey fucks him

335
00:16:26,580 --> 00:16:28,100
Speaker 1: off by a bit. Yeah, clearly.

336
00:16:28,180 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 3: Lawhead.

337
00:16:28,860 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: Sorry.

338
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,210
Speaker 3: Rowan got in his own head.

339
00:16:31,450 --> 00:16:34,290
Speaker 1: Yeah. About everything. And he doubted his ability. I'm like, mate,

340
00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:36,650
Speaker 1: you're meant to be the fucking best stepper. You're fucking Rowan, bro. Yeah.

341
00:16:36,690 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: Dead set. Now, they're having a bit of a back

342
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:45,020
Speaker 1: and forth and Lorcan still has this ring. So, he

343
00:16:45,060 --> 00:16:49,090
Speaker 1: took that ring that's supposed to be paired with Galadri's,

344
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,690
Speaker 1: the sword, right? That will protect you from the Valg

345
00:16:54,230 --> 00:16:58,229
Speaker 1: Prince's magic. The sword Selene's got? The sword Selene has, right?

346
00:16:58,270 --> 00:16:59,610
Speaker 1: And so, he was like, you're an idiot for getting

347
00:16:59,630 --> 00:17:02,390
Speaker 1: rid of that ring, blah, blah, blah, blah. Anywho. Now,

348
00:17:03,350 --> 00:17:04,910
Speaker 1: him and Rowan are having a back and forth. They're

349
00:17:04,930 --> 00:17:09,710
Speaker 1: talking and Lorcan knows what they're going to be doing

350
00:17:10,369 --> 00:17:12,970
Speaker 1: tomorrow or the next day or whatever, and in a

351
00:17:12,990 --> 00:17:20,150
Speaker 1: few days they're about to go try and free magic. Now, he... Basically,

352
00:17:20,210 --> 00:17:23,380
Speaker 1: Rowan and him make a trade because we know Lorcan's

353
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: going to find all the word keys and he's doing

354
00:17:26,220 --> 00:17:28,139
Speaker 1: it because he's doing it for Maeve and he's serving

355
00:17:28,180 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: Maeve and he's going to destroy the word keys because

356
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,460
Speaker 1: he doesn't want Maeve to get them because he thinks

357
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: that she will then become a prisoner of the Valg

358
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: or some shit or she'll be a bad ruler. And

359
00:17:36,980 --> 00:17:38,740
Speaker 1: so he's like, you know I can do this. You

360
00:17:38,780 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: know I can get the word keys, and I know

361
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,939
Speaker 1: you have one. And then Rowan's kind of like, okay, well,

362
00:17:44,060 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: what's the go with this ring? Like, dead serious, this

363
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:50,020
Speaker 1: motherfucker will protect from the Valk. And then Lorcan says,

364
00:17:50,300 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 1: on my honor, on everything. Rowan says, well, never heard

365
00:17:53,220 --> 00:17:56,270
Speaker 1: him lie. May as well do it. They trade ring

366
00:17:56,330 --> 00:17:59,390
Speaker 1: for word key. And then I'm wigging out a bit here.

367
00:17:59,430 --> 00:18:01,770
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, bro, Rowan, you're about to break our heart.

368
00:18:02,390 --> 00:18:05,890
Speaker 1: Selene doesn't, Aelin doesn't know about this. Goes down, talks

369
00:18:05,910 --> 00:18:07,860
Speaker 1: to Aelin. She goes, did you know it was a fake?

370
00:18:09,180 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: These motherfuckers gave him a fake word key. You were right.

371
00:18:11,260 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: That's what I was wigging out about. I was saying amulet,

372
00:18:12,940 --> 00:18:15,620
Speaker 1: but it was a word key. Yeah. But the word

373
00:18:15,660 --> 00:18:17,740
Speaker 1: key is in the Amulet of Orinth. Yeah. The Orinth

374
00:18:17,780 --> 00:18:23,420
Speaker 1: Amulet or whatever. Anywho, pretty cool. I think it's cool. Dorian,

375
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: we get a little Dorian moment. He's wrestling the demon

376
00:18:26,300 --> 00:18:30,180
Speaker 1: in him still, but he remembers Manon. And the demon's

377
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:31,940
Speaker 1: kind of like saying to him, don't you remember that name?

378
00:18:31,980 --> 00:18:36,550
Speaker 1: That's fucking... And again, 100%, she... 100% is direct descendant

379
00:18:36,570 --> 00:18:38,379
Speaker 1: of the king of the Alexei. Are you starting to

380
00:18:38,390 --> 00:18:39,780
Speaker 1: believe me or did you always believe me? No, I'm

381
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:46,180
Speaker 1: starting to believe you. Okay. Kael and Aelin, they finally chat.

382
00:18:46,820 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: Is this where everyone's telling me that he's going to

383
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,260
Speaker 1: get his redemption in this book? Because they have a

384
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: good chat and he apologizes for everything. She apologizes for shit.

385
00:18:54,060 --> 00:18:57,890
Speaker 1: And he's like, basically, you deserve to be queen. You're

386
00:18:57,910 --> 00:19:00,010
Speaker 1: not a monster. He just like takes back everything he said.

387
00:19:00,930 --> 00:19:04,690
Speaker 1: I didn't think that was much redemption. Yeah, he just apologized.

388
00:19:04,790 --> 00:19:07,230
Speaker 3: It's like you've dated a toxic ex and then like

389
00:19:07,650 --> 00:19:10,210
Speaker 3: a year later, they call you and want to feel

390
00:19:10,230 --> 00:19:11,429
Speaker 3: better about themselves and closure.

391
00:19:11,450 --> 00:19:13,109
Speaker 1: Say, oh yeah, I've grown now. I need closure. I

392
00:19:13,130 --> 00:19:15,890
Speaker 1: need to tell you that what I did was wrong. Bro, legit. Like,

393
00:19:16,030 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: don't talk to me. I mean, I thought it was

394
00:19:18,619 --> 00:19:20,060
Speaker 1: kind of nice to be fair. It was kind of nice.

395
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,300
Speaker 1: But then she also says to him that she thinks

396
00:19:23,340 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: he deserves to be happy. Yeah. And that he thinks

397
00:19:25,700 --> 00:19:27,460
Speaker 1: that he should be with Nezrin. And then he goes,

398
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:28,979
Speaker 1: that's if Nezrin wants to be with me. And then

399
00:19:29,020 --> 00:19:31,740
Speaker 1: she goes, motherfucker, I see the way she looks at you.

400
00:19:31,780 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 1: Trust me, she wants you.

401
00:19:33,660 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: Well, Kale was still like, wasn't his inner dialogue like.

402
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:39,770
Speaker 1: I've been waiting for this moment.

403
00:19:39,790 --> 00:19:42,149
Speaker 3: Like, didn't he say something like that? I've been waiting

404
00:19:42,150 --> 00:19:44,010
Speaker 3: since as soon as she's come back to have this

405
00:19:44,010 --> 00:19:45,020
Speaker 3: conversation with her.

406
00:19:45,020 --> 00:19:47,580
Speaker 1: What, with Selena, with Aylin? Yeah. That something was going

407
00:19:47,580 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: to happen? I don't know. Ever since Selena left. No,

408
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: he's not still in love with her, Bob. Yeah, he's not.

409
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: But I swear he's like, I've been waiting for this moment.

410
00:19:52,580 --> 00:19:53,820
Speaker 1: I could say so many things, but then he was

411
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,980
Speaker 1: so calm. Or was that Selena? I have no idea.

412
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 1: I can't really remember. I smashed through these chapters again. Yeah,

413
00:19:58,900 --> 00:19:59,380
Speaker 1: you did.

414
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:00,659
Speaker 3: Even one of them said that.

415
00:20:00,700 --> 00:20:02,020
Speaker 1: No, it was Kale. Yeah, he's like, I've been waiting

416
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: for this moment for so long. And he just didn't

417
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,590
Speaker 1: say anything. Oh, is this when he was being a

418
00:20:07,869 --> 00:20:09,189
Speaker 1: dick to her at the beginning? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

419
00:20:09,210 --> 00:20:10,489
Speaker 3: He's like, I've got so much to say to her

420
00:20:10,510 --> 00:20:11,810
Speaker 3: and everything. I want to say everything, but I just

421
00:20:11,830 --> 00:20:12,310
Speaker 3: can't say it.

422
00:20:12,430 --> 00:20:13,770
Speaker 1: You're not talking about right now. You're talking about the

423
00:20:13,790 --> 00:20:15,409
Speaker 1: beginning of the book? No, I'm saying right now. Oh,

424
00:20:15,430 --> 00:20:16,810
Speaker 1: I can't even. And then Selene is like, he's just

425
00:20:16,830 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: so cool, calm and collected. Well, anyway, it doesn't really matter.

426
00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:26,959
Speaker 1: Kael and Nesrin go for a little stroll together. They

427
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: go to a temple where, and she goes to this,

428
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,100
Speaker 1: she takes him to this temple, right? And she sits

429
00:20:32,140 --> 00:20:36,650
Speaker 1: down and basically is like, um, You need to promise

430
00:20:36,690 --> 00:20:38,270
Speaker 1: me that you're going to walk out of that castle

431
00:20:38,910 --> 00:20:46,909
Speaker 1: after you guys go kill Dorian and the king. So... Wait. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

432
00:20:46,990 --> 00:20:48,750
Speaker 1: After you guys go kill Dorian and the king. That's

433
00:20:48,790 --> 00:20:51,169
Speaker 1: their plan is they're going to kill Dorian and the king. So...

434
00:20:51,550 --> 00:20:53,869
Speaker 1: And free magic. There's a bunch of different shit. Anyway.

435
00:20:54,869 --> 00:20:56,850
Speaker 1: He goes, I promise I'll be walking out of that castle.

436
00:20:57,230 --> 00:21:01,649
Speaker 1: The word walk is very, very important. Very important. I

437
00:21:01,650 --> 00:21:03,750
Speaker 1: missed that at the time. So did I. I missed

438
00:21:03,770 --> 00:21:05,150
Speaker 1: it at the time. The word walk is very important.

439
00:21:05,170 --> 00:21:05,930
Speaker 1: But you're not going to fucking.

440
00:21:06,460 --> 00:21:10,139
Speaker 4: yeah you gotta walk out that guy whatever so the

441
00:21:10,180 --> 00:21:15,140
Speaker 4: plan is that rowan and adion go into the sewers

442
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 4: with the hellfire and then they can get from the

443
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,820
Speaker 4: sewers they can get all the way to underneath um

444
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 4: they they go sewers castle.

445
00:21:24,619 --> 00:21:28,460
Speaker 1: Like dungeons and then they get to where um selena

446
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,179
Speaker 1: was in book one or two where she ended up

447
00:21:32,220 --> 00:21:34,590
Speaker 1: underneath the big tower yep and so they get there

448
00:21:34,619 --> 00:21:36,540
Speaker 1: right that's that's the plans they're gonna go there They're

449
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:37,939
Speaker 1: going to set off the hellfire and then they're going

450
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 1: to fucking book it because they're the only ones that

451
00:21:39,660 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: are going to be fast enough to maybe get away

452
00:21:41,060 --> 00:21:45,109
Speaker 1: from there. All the while, Selina and Kale are going

453
00:21:45,130 --> 00:21:47,450
Speaker 1: to be in the castle distracting. But in the castle,

454
00:21:47,470 --> 00:21:49,730
Speaker 1: they're far enough away where this explosion isn't going to

455
00:21:49,750 --> 00:21:53,950
Speaker 1: get them. The way Selina... Selina's plan was shit. You reckon?

456
00:21:54,210 --> 00:21:55,689
Speaker 3: I reckon when she goes, I'm just going to go

457
00:21:55,730 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 3: through the front door with Kale. And then Kale's been

458
00:21:59,150 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: deserted for however months. And then he goes, I saw Kale...

459
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 3: At the shipyard.

460
00:22:04,060 --> 00:22:06,220
Speaker 1: Yeah. To say he confessed everything to me. Now he's here.

461
00:22:07,100 --> 00:22:09,179
Speaker 1: And they also. But the whole idea is like. She

462
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 1: just wants to get in there. The distractor. So she

463
00:22:10,900 --> 00:22:13,860
Speaker 1: can kill them. Yeah. It's like. Magic will come back.

464
00:22:13,900 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: And then she can kill them with the magic. So. Hey.

465
00:22:16,940 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 1: That's it. It is what it is.

466
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:19,100
Speaker 3: Ah yes.

467
00:22:19,220 --> 00:22:22,770
Speaker 1: Chapter 66. Selene. Lysandra wants to help. She says no.

468
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,490
Speaker 1: Get out of the city. You know. Take Evangeline. Go.

469
00:22:25,690 --> 00:22:28,490
Speaker 1: Go to the blah blah blah. Like the. Hinterlands where.

470
00:22:28,690 --> 00:22:31,450
Speaker 1: Where Nezrin's family is. And just chill there for a bit. Now.

471
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: This is just like morning off. I think it's the

472
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,199
Speaker 1: morning of the day before they plan to go do

473
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,350
Speaker 1: all this. Kill the king, kill Dorian, release magic, everything.

474
00:22:43,830 --> 00:22:46,389
Speaker 1: Keep in mind, this is also my favorite part of

475
00:22:46,410 --> 00:22:48,450
Speaker 1: the book. Keep in mind, Manon and Nastran, they flew

476
00:22:48,470 --> 00:22:52,390
Speaker 1: to Riftholt, right? Why did they fly to Riftholt? Because

477
00:22:52,910 --> 00:22:56,060
Speaker 1: they went around the entire city. Selene is like wigging out.

478
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:57,780
Speaker 1: She's out. She's going to get some breakfast, right? A

479
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,139
Speaker 1: bit of sustenance for a big day. She's going out and...

480
00:23:02,820 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: They're in the slums and down at the end of

481
00:23:04,100 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: this alleyway, there's just a crowd of people. She's walking in,

482
00:23:08,260 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: she's going through. Then she gets to the end and

483
00:23:10,980 --> 00:23:13,820
Speaker 1: she sees on the wall written in Valk blood with

484
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: a dead commander underneath is witch killer. The prince is

485
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,220
Speaker 1: still in there. And I was like, that's fucking hectic.

486
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,340
Speaker 1: That was cool. And so Astrin and Manon went around

487
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: the whole city killing a bunch of the Valk motherfuckers

488
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: and wrote that like witch killer, blah, blah, blah. The

489
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 1: prince is still in there. Don't kill him type shit.

490
00:23:30,980 --> 00:23:33,970
Speaker 1: Just so she would see it. She runs to Kael's apartment.

491
00:23:34,970 --> 00:23:40,609
Speaker 1: She runs to Kael's apartment. So, there's still hope. What

492
00:23:40,650 --> 00:23:44,890
Speaker 1: it actually says is Witchkiller, the human, is still inside him. Anywho. Cool.

493
00:23:45,170 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: Chapter 67, we've got Kael and Selene. They split up

494
00:23:49,100 --> 00:23:51,659
Speaker 1: from Aedion and Rowan because they all have different plans.

495
00:23:51,740 --> 00:23:55,719
Speaker 1: And Aedion actually gives Selene her father's sword. I don't

496
00:23:55,740 --> 00:23:59,290
Speaker 1: know why. Because I thought she said to him ages ago, like,

497
00:23:59,310 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: it's yours, keep it. Was it just out of like,

498
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,530
Speaker 1: he was being nice? To use it? Yeah. That's it?

499
00:24:07,540 --> 00:24:08,980
Speaker 1: I don't know. They must have had a plan. Because

500
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,109
Speaker 1: he's not planning to fight. He didn't know the... But

501
00:24:12,130 --> 00:24:13,649
Speaker 1: he didn't know that they're going to get ambushed, which

502
00:24:13,670 --> 00:24:15,050
Speaker 1: is a spoiler. But if you haven't read the book,

503
00:24:15,070 --> 00:24:16,750
Speaker 1: then you shouldn't be watching this podcast. He probably thinks

504
00:24:16,790 --> 00:24:19,310
Speaker 1: he's just running. He's like, I don't need a sword, maybe. Yeah, maybe. Yeah,

505
00:24:19,470 --> 00:24:20,109
Speaker 1: she needs it more than him.

506
00:24:20,210 --> 00:24:22,340
Speaker 3: Yeah, like she's going in with like every guard ever.

507
00:24:22,540 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: And also, really dumb is you're going to find out, right? Like,

508
00:24:26,820 --> 00:24:30,180
Speaker 1: I'll say it when we get there. Anywho. All right, cool. So,

509
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: chapter 68. Kael and Selene arrive to the castle and

510
00:24:34,820 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 1: she's got him in chains, acting as if she is

511
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,850
Speaker 1: still the king's champion that has just got home from

512
00:24:38,900 --> 00:24:42,870
Speaker 1: Wendelin and caught Kael, the deserter that has been blah, blah, blah.

513
00:24:43,150 --> 00:24:46,330
Speaker 1: They let her in. Also, spiked up on the outside

514
00:24:46,369 --> 00:24:48,270
Speaker 1: of the fucking gates of the castle is all Kael's

515
00:24:48,330 --> 00:24:50,870
Speaker 1: men that were inside. They killed them all. Yeah. Heads

516
00:24:50,930 --> 00:24:54,229
Speaker 1: on spikes. Kael's furious. He's devoured. Anywho, they get in,

517
00:24:54,550 --> 00:24:57,350
Speaker 1: go into the king's throne room and there's the king, Dorian.

518
00:24:57,590 --> 00:25:00,429
Speaker 1: He kind of shoos everyone away, right? Straight away, the

519
00:25:00,450 --> 00:25:03,550
Speaker 1: king's like, They're talking some shit, but straight away, the

520
00:25:03,570 --> 00:25:06,310
Speaker 1: king says, obviously, you're Aelin. You know, I'm not fucking dumb.

521
00:25:06,350 --> 00:25:08,129
Speaker 1: You're obviously Aelin. I don't know how I didn't say

522
00:25:08,150 --> 00:25:10,990
Speaker 1: it at the start, but obviously. Now, here's the thing, right?

523
00:25:11,770 --> 00:25:13,670
Speaker 1: She actually says, like, she didn't expect him to figure

524
00:25:13,690 --> 00:25:15,350
Speaker 1: it out that quick, but she kind of, like, fuck it.

525
00:25:15,550 --> 00:25:17,510
Speaker 1: We're freestyling here. Let's just go with it. We just

526
00:25:17,530 --> 00:25:20,890
Speaker 1: got to bide our time, wait for the explosion, kill, kill, kill. So,

527
00:25:22,230 --> 00:25:25,270
Speaker 1: what weirded me out was, before she goes into the castle,

528
00:25:27,690 --> 00:25:32,429
Speaker 1: Aedion gives her the sword that was taken When he

529
00:25:32,470 --> 00:25:36,390
Speaker 1: was recaptured from the king, you know, what's it called?

530
00:25:36,450 --> 00:25:38,330
Speaker 1: Saved from the king, right? The king is going to

531
00:25:38,369 --> 00:25:41,510
Speaker 1: see the sword of Orenth on her and be like, well,

532
00:25:41,910 --> 00:25:44,210
Speaker 1: where'd you get that? And why did you give her

533
00:25:44,250 --> 00:25:44,550
Speaker 1: the sword?

534
00:25:44,650 --> 00:25:46,570
Speaker 3: And she mentions that the guards didn't take any of

535
00:25:46,609 --> 00:25:49,300
Speaker 3: her weapons because they think she's Selene and she's coming back.

536
00:25:49,410 --> 00:25:52,100
Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't clock that. And like, even when he says,

537
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,330
Speaker 1: you know, you're obviously Aelin. It was a shit plan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Obviously,

538
00:25:56,350 --> 00:25:57,590
Speaker 1: he knew that. I always knew he knew that.

539
00:25:57,609 --> 00:25:59,170
Speaker 3: I feel like the king being so smart, like, why

540
00:25:59,190 --> 00:26:01,189
Speaker 3: would he let her in with weapons if she's fucking

541
00:26:01,410 --> 00:26:02,220
Speaker 3: Aelin Galathineus?

542
00:26:02,300 --> 00:26:04,780
Speaker 1: Because he's like, I'm all powerful and I give a fuck. Still,

543
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:05,940
Speaker 1: but better be safe than sorry.

544
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 3: If I'm the king, I'm fucking being safe.

545
00:26:08,100 --> 00:26:09,780
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually a good point. It's like, if you

546
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,690
Speaker 1: know that she's Aelin. Yeah, I'm being safe. No weapons, gal. Doing, bro.

547
00:26:14,270 --> 00:26:16,470
Speaker 3: I'm chanting you up as soon as I see you.

548
00:26:16,530 --> 00:26:18,290
Speaker 1: You're not even coming in the same room as me. Um,

549
00:26:19,250 --> 00:26:22,129
Speaker 1: One thing I'll add is that everyone has, before they

550
00:26:22,150 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: all went into this, she's got everyone to paint word

551
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:28,300
Speaker 1: marks on themselves for safety. Chapter 70. Sorry, I skipped.

552
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: I did a couple of chapters in one just then.

553
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:37,750
Speaker 1: Chapter 70. Rowan and Adion, they finally get to this thing, right?

554
00:26:37,790 --> 00:26:40,490
Speaker 1: They're setting up the hellfire. They're setting up the fuses

555
00:26:41,050 --> 00:26:44,790
Speaker 1: and then something drips on them and they're wigging out.

556
00:26:45,630 --> 00:26:50,010
Speaker 1: They look up. All seven word hounds still alive. Lorcan

557
00:26:50,030 --> 00:26:52,469
Speaker 1: didn't kill a single one. Bloody Lorcan. And then what

558
00:26:52,510 --> 00:26:57,430
Speaker 1: he's noticed is Kael, a part of Kael's like clothing

559
00:26:58,190 --> 00:27:01,300
Speaker 1: dripped down from them. And so Lorcan had actually given

560
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:05,020
Speaker 1: them Rowan's scent, not Kael's scent, Rowan's scent. So they

561
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:10,859
Speaker 1: could find them. Yeah. Anyway, they're thinking, fuck. Dang. And

562
00:27:10,900 --> 00:27:12,990
Speaker 1: then obviously they have to fight the motherfuckers, but they're off.

563
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,260
Speaker 1: And they're getting fucked up. Yeah. They end up kind

564
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,180
Speaker 1: of getting fucked up. Is the alien a beast or not? Yeah,

565
00:27:18,220 --> 00:27:19,580
Speaker 1: Adion's supposed to be a beast. He's a beast, yeah.

566
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,780
Speaker 1: But these guys are fucking... Lorcan couldn't kill them, bro. Yeah.

567
00:27:22,060 --> 00:27:29,070
Speaker 1: Jesus fucking Christ. So they're fighting them. And the plan was,

568
00:27:29,570 --> 00:27:36,330
Speaker 1: at noon, magic... Explosion goes off, magic's back. But they're

569
00:27:36,350 --> 00:27:39,689
Speaker 1: fighting the word hounds, so noon passes. Selina looks out,

570
00:27:39,730 --> 00:27:41,950
Speaker 1: she knows it's noon. She's like, oh fuck, what's going

571
00:27:41,990 --> 00:27:44,110
Speaker 1: on down there? This is fucking bad. This is not good.

572
00:27:45,810 --> 00:27:50,020
Speaker 1: Then Selina... reveals that she has the eye of Elena

573
00:27:50,140 --> 00:27:52,850
Speaker 1: to the king, right? And she's like, you know what

574
00:27:52,890 --> 00:27:55,050
Speaker 1: I've got here? The only thing that's put your fucking

575
00:27:55,109 --> 00:27:57,990
Speaker 1: Val Prince King or whatever this guy, Erewhon or whatever

576
00:27:58,030 --> 00:28:00,470
Speaker 1: his name is, the king that's under Morath, this is

577
00:28:00,490 --> 00:28:01,869
Speaker 1: the only thing that can wake him up, isn't it?

578
00:28:02,950 --> 00:28:05,930
Speaker 1: So if you want it. How'd you get that? Come

579
00:28:05,970 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: and fucking get it type of shit. But what we

580
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,940
Speaker 1: don't know is that she leaves, brushes past Kael, right?

581
00:28:15,100 --> 00:28:17,750
Speaker 1: By the way, Dorian's in the throne room. The king

582
00:28:17,790 --> 00:28:21,350
Speaker 1: makes this whole thing of saying, Neil, do this, do that.

583
00:28:21,410 --> 00:28:25,490
Speaker 1: He's got full control over him, whatever. Now, Cael's in there,

584
00:28:25,690 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 1: and the plan is, Aelin lures Dorian out, and Cael

585
00:28:30,540 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: kills the king. But he knows he's sacrificing himself, and

586
00:28:33,380 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: even though he's lied to Nesrin, saying he's going to

587
00:28:34,780 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: walk out of this castle. Anyway, walk past, and Selene

588
00:28:38,580 --> 00:28:43,810
Speaker 1: slips the eye of Elena into Cael's pocket, which... I

589
00:28:43,870 --> 00:28:45,910
Speaker 1: knew happened, but it's like everyone's making out that they

590
00:28:45,930 --> 00:28:48,540
Speaker 1: don't know how it happened. I didn't clock it. I

591
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 1: clocked that. No, I didn't. Anyway. So I think I'm

592
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,180
Speaker 1: just going to freestyle from here until like it's like

593
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,380
Speaker 1: kind of hectic shit goes down, but I'm just going

594
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,740
Speaker 1: to freestyle for a minute. Well, it gets good. Yeah.

595
00:29:02,780 --> 00:29:09,810
Speaker 1: It was good, but it gets even better. I'm going to. Oh, wait. Yeah. Oh, wait. No,

596
00:29:09,830 --> 00:29:12,180
Speaker 1: there's actually some fucking good shit going on here. I'm

597
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,220
Speaker 1: not going to freestyle this bad. I'm going to keep going. Okay, okay.

598
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to keep going because I, like, forgot some stuff. Like,

599
00:29:16,340 --> 00:29:26,910
Speaker 1: just blue balls. So, right now, it's now... We're at

600
00:29:26,930 --> 00:29:30,729
Speaker 1: a point where... So, Rowan, Adion getting fucked up by

601
00:29:30,770 --> 00:29:35,290
Speaker 1: these word hounds. Kayle, Selina, they're both going to try

602
00:29:35,310 --> 00:29:37,170
Speaker 1: and kill their respective people that they're going to try

603
00:29:37,190 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: and kill. But actually, Dorian's alive inside the prince. so

604
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: we believe that so what sorry what alien gonna try

605
00:29:43,100 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: and do is like get him out so she dips

606
00:29:46,790 --> 00:29:51,510
Speaker 1: dorian chases her kale stays there with the king so

607
00:29:51,530 --> 00:29:57,190
Speaker 1: she's dipped right and she um she's like running through

608
00:29:57,210 --> 00:29:58,890
Speaker 1: the castle she knows the castle real well she got

609
00:29:58,910 --> 00:30:01,860
Speaker 1: all the plans And she's running, Dorian's catching her, right?

610
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: And she has to just like, she's like jumping off buildings,

611
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,660
Speaker 1: like fucking doing all this crazy ass shit, right? And

612
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,870
Speaker 1: then fucking Dorian starts to kind of like fuck her

613
00:30:13,910 --> 00:30:16,930
Speaker 1: up a bit. Now go back to the POV of

614
00:30:17,310 --> 00:30:19,650
Speaker 1: Rowan and Adion. They are getting fucked up by these

615
00:30:19,670 --> 00:30:22,270
Speaker 1: word hounds, but they're kind of holding true. They've killed

616
00:30:22,290 --> 00:30:24,730
Speaker 1: like three of them now. There's still four left. Then

617
00:30:25,590 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: happy old days. Number one, some crazy shit happens like, Um,

618
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: because they're like definitely mated in some sort of bonded

619
00:30:33,500 --> 00:30:36,490
Speaker 1: blood oath or whatever. Some ice gets like shredded into

620
00:30:36,530 --> 00:30:38,850
Speaker 1: fucking from Dorian. Some ice gets like shredded into Aelin's

621
00:30:38,890 --> 00:30:42,630
Speaker 1: back and she's like, ah, ah. And then, um, Rowan's

622
00:30:42,650 --> 00:30:44,990
Speaker 1: kind of getting fucked up. But then, um, Dorian comes

623
00:30:45,090 --> 00:30:48,230
Speaker 1: up full like ice knife, stabs Aelin in the fucking side.

624
00:30:48,620 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 1: Rowan full on feels it. Then out of nowhere, we're

625
00:30:51,220 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 1: back down fighting the word hounds and fucking Lorcan comes

626
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: out of nowhere for some reason. And he's starting to

627
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,980
Speaker 1: help out. Don't know why. I actually don't know. But

628
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,780
Speaker 1: he comes in, he starts to fuck up the word

629
00:31:00,820 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: hounds and help them out a bit. So they finally

630
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:07,780
Speaker 1: fuck up the word hounds. And then Kael, we're going

631
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,660
Speaker 1: Kael POV. He's talking to the king and he's like,

632
00:31:11,030 --> 00:31:15,570
Speaker 1: let's fucking go, ussy. King goes, fuck you, pussy. Gets

633
00:31:15,590 --> 00:31:18,970
Speaker 1: some fucking black magic. Just like makes it out as

634
00:31:19,010 --> 00:31:23,010
Speaker 1: if he kills Kael. That was the worst lineup ever, bud. Yeah, Kael, gone. King,

635
00:31:23,450 --> 00:31:31,780
Speaker 1: going to find Dorian and Aelin. Cool. Now, they... Wordhounds, dead. Hellfire,

636
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:41,790
Speaker 1: about to go off. They light the fuse. Lorcan, Adion, Rowan, running. Bro, running. Boom.

637
00:31:43,450 --> 00:31:47,910
Speaker 1: About time. They're back in the sewers. Boom. All right,

638
00:31:47,930 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: there's a big-ass boom. Magic's back. Yay. Everyone's wigging out. Now, Aelin,

639
00:31:57,500 --> 00:31:59,590
Speaker 1: her magic's back. So she can fuck with Dorian. She

640
00:31:59,610 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: can get him out. This whole time, by the way,

641
00:32:01,210 --> 00:32:02,230
Speaker 1: she's like, Dorian, I know you're in there. I know

642
00:32:02,250 --> 00:32:06,750
Speaker 1: you're in there. I know you're in there. Now, they

643
00:32:06,770 --> 00:32:12,050
Speaker 1: are like up on a bridge between big towers of

644
00:32:12,090 --> 00:32:15,450
Speaker 1: the castle, right? They're like up on this bridge between

645
00:32:15,470 --> 00:32:19,100
Speaker 1: the big towers of the castle. And that's when magic

646
00:32:19,420 --> 00:32:23,180
Speaker 1: returns and she feels it. Also heals, like she was stabbed.

647
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:31,959
Speaker 1: She heals. And we have... Her, Dorian, and I can't

648
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:37,510
Speaker 1: actually fully remember. Do you remember what happens with, like,

649
00:32:38,150 --> 00:32:42,150
Speaker 1: how she releases him? How she releases Dorian?

650
00:32:42,250 --> 00:32:44,209
Speaker 3: I thought the king comes into the equation first.

651
00:32:44,270 --> 00:32:45,910
Speaker 1: He does come into the occasion, actually.

652
00:32:46,470 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 3: And then, because he goes, I wanted to play with

653
00:32:49,630 --> 00:32:50,180
Speaker 3: Cael more.

654
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:55,940
Speaker 1: Oh, here we go. The king comes back. And he's

655
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,660
Speaker 1: talking to Dorian and Aelin, right? And he says, so

656
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: she goes, I take it Kael's dead. He goes, my

657
00:33:03,940 --> 00:33:05,620
Speaker 1: only regret is I didn't get to spend more time

658
00:33:05,660 --> 00:33:09,110
Speaker 1: killing him. That's what snaps Dorian out of it. Yes.

659
00:33:09,150 --> 00:33:14,350
Speaker 1: He goes, you killed Kael? What? And then, so what happens?

660
00:33:14,370 --> 00:33:15,890
Speaker 1: So he says, you killed Kael? And the king's kind

661
00:33:15,910 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: of like, yeah, yeah, yeah. And so then what happens

662
00:33:17,930 --> 00:33:23,380
Speaker 1: is Dorian snaps himself out of it. Right? Kola comes off.

663
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: King's like, nah, impossible. What was your prediction? Is that

664
00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: what you said? No, I think I thought, didn't I

665
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:35,100
Speaker 1: think Madden was going to come do it? Maybe. No, no.

666
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: I thought similar. I was wrong. What I thought was

667
00:33:38,900 --> 00:33:41,860
Speaker 1: going to happen was that the same thing that happened

668
00:33:41,900 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: to Kaltain was going to happen to Dorian, where he

669
00:33:43,500 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: was going to figure it out on his own. But no,

670
00:33:46,140 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: he couldn't. So I think what I thought was going

671
00:33:47,500 --> 00:33:49,110
Speaker 1: to happen was magic was going to be freed. Dorian

672
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,170
Speaker 1: was going to realize magic's freed. So if he somehow

673
00:33:51,230 --> 00:33:53,170
Speaker 1: can overcome this prince in him, he was going to

674
00:33:53,190 --> 00:33:54,910
Speaker 1: be able to use the magic. But no, what ends

675
00:33:54,950 --> 00:33:58,390
Speaker 1: up happening is Kael's dead, snaps Dorian out of it.

676
00:33:58,930 --> 00:34:01,630
Speaker 1: And then somehow you fuck the demon inside of him.

677
00:34:01,650 --> 00:34:03,830
Speaker 1: I said a kiss from Kale will fix him. You

678
00:34:03,850 --> 00:34:06,060
Speaker 1: didn't say that. Somehow the demon inside of him fucks up.

679
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: I can't fully remember. But then something also happens with

680
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,740
Speaker 1: like the king, right? And this is something you predicted. So,

681
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:23,850
Speaker 1: number one. So, let's think about this. Yeah, nice. Nice.

682
00:34:24,570 --> 00:34:26,510
Speaker 1: King arrives on the bridge, he says he killed Kao,

683
00:34:26,570 --> 00:34:30,170
Speaker 1: Doran finally backs control, and the Valg gets back control

684
00:34:30,489 --> 00:34:34,470
Speaker 1: and snaps the collar off. Now, I want to say

685
00:34:34,510 --> 00:34:39,140
Speaker 1: that before all this happened, Rowan, Adion, Lorcan, running through

686
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,859
Speaker 1: the sewers. Every Valg fucking army soldier or some shit

687
00:34:42,900 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: is in the sewers. They're fighting through them. Rowan, he's

688
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: got like a broken leg from the fucking, he's like

689
00:34:49,060 --> 00:34:53,180
Speaker 1: a full-snapped leg from the wordhounds. He's getting fucked up. Now,

690
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:58,779
Speaker 1: Lorcan and fucking Adion. They are like one, two V

691
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:03,930
Speaker 1: one million fucking Valk soldiers. They're getting pumped. Lorcan, he's like, goes,

692
00:35:04,330 --> 00:35:06,029
Speaker 1: he just like starts fucking shit up and he just

693
00:35:06,050 --> 00:35:09,190
Speaker 1: goes into the soldiers. He's left Adion alone. Adion's like,

694
00:35:09,250 --> 00:35:11,190
Speaker 1: we're about to die, Rowan. Stands in front, he's like,

695
00:35:11,230 --> 00:35:12,830
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have one last stand. And Rowan's kind of like,

696
00:35:12,870 --> 00:35:15,189
Speaker 1: my man, my man, don't do this. Then there's something

697
00:35:15,250 --> 00:35:18,750
Speaker 1: happening at the back, right? And randomly, just out of nowhere,

698
00:35:19,030 --> 00:35:21,750
Speaker 1: a shadow fucking cougar or whatever it was called that

699
00:35:21,810 --> 00:35:24,410
Speaker 1: they spoke about with Lysandra that one time, is just

700
00:35:24,450 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 1: like running through fucking up the Valk soldiers. And it's Lysandra.

701
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 1: She's shifted into one of these things that she's never

702
00:35:29,460 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: seen before, which wigs me out. She's like, I have

703
00:35:32,020 --> 00:35:34,940
Speaker 1: to have seen them to know what to shift into.

704
00:35:35,620 --> 00:35:37,259
Speaker 1: She's like, I don't even know what I used to

705
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,549
Speaker 1: look like, so I can't shift into that. And now

706
00:35:39,730 --> 00:35:43,010
Speaker 1: magic's released and she can shift into something she's never seen. Loophole.

707
00:35:44,130 --> 00:35:45,730
Speaker 1: Hole in the story. What are you talking about? How'd

708
00:35:45,750 --> 00:35:47,210
Speaker 1: she know what a fucking shadow wolf or whatever it

709
00:35:47,250 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 1: is called? Yeah. Okay. You know what I'm saying? Fucking loophole, bro. Um, now,

710
00:35:57,180 --> 00:36:03,450
Speaker 1: so magic's released and what actually happens is somehow the

711
00:36:03,489 --> 00:36:05,310
Speaker 1: hellfire explosion did a bunch of shit, but like there's

712
00:36:05,330 --> 00:36:08,310
Speaker 1: a gap somewhere in rubble small enough for Rowan to

713
00:36:08,350 --> 00:36:10,250
Speaker 1: turn into a hawk and fly through. So he does that.

714
00:36:10,270 --> 00:36:12,529
Speaker 1: He's like, I need to get to Aelin. So he

715
00:36:12,570 --> 00:36:14,870
Speaker 1: does that. He turns it and he's flying up and he's,

716
00:36:15,090 --> 00:36:18,430
Speaker 1: and he's watching like Aelin, Dorian and the King. Now,

717
00:36:19,630 --> 00:36:24,700
Speaker 1: Selene and Dorian, they, use their powers together.

718
00:36:25,580 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

719
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 3: On the bridge, the king was about to kill Solan

720
00:36:28,820 --> 00:36:30,980
Speaker 3: because the king could take both of them without magic.

721
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,540
Speaker 1: Yes. Being released. Yes. He was going to kill Aelin. Yeah.

722
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,410
Speaker 1: Aelin was gone. Aelin was going to die. But then

723
00:36:36,489 --> 00:36:39,410
Speaker 1: magic released. She feels it happened. And then her and Dorian,

724
00:36:39,770 --> 00:36:43,149
Speaker 1: they like together, somehow bond their magic together and they

725
00:36:43,230 --> 00:36:45,390
Speaker 1: hit the king with it. And then it actually kind

726
00:36:45,430 --> 00:36:47,529
Speaker 1: of like wigs the king out and knocks him out

727
00:36:47,550 --> 00:36:50,250
Speaker 1: a bit of a thing. Right. And he's like, calls Dorian,

728
00:36:50,290 --> 00:36:53,350
Speaker 1: my boy. He's like, Dorian, my boy. And so, Slane

729
00:36:53,390 --> 00:36:55,710
Speaker 1: is like, bro, what? She's kind of like, what the

730
00:36:55,750 --> 00:36:58,589
Speaker 1: fuck are you talking about? And the king reveals that

731
00:36:59,450 --> 00:37:04,390
Speaker 1: he has what happened back in the day. So, Erowan,

732
00:37:04,830 --> 00:37:08,670
Speaker 1: that king Val, already released, already awoken. What happened is

733
00:37:08,730 --> 00:37:10,989
Speaker 1: that him and Duke Parrington, back in the day when

734
00:37:11,010 --> 00:37:14,850
Speaker 1: they were young, they found out all this shit. And

735
00:37:14,969 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: the king and Duke both got like possessed quite quickly

736
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:22,450
Speaker 1: by the king. the King Valg, Duke Parrington, he's the

737
00:37:22,489 --> 00:37:25,089
Speaker 1: fucking real villain. He's got the King inside him and

738
00:37:25,190 --> 00:37:28,210
Speaker 1: the King Valg. And there was just a Prince inside

739
00:37:28,469 --> 00:37:30,930
Speaker 1: the King. Did you believe it at this point? Or

740
00:37:30,950 --> 00:37:32,170
Speaker 1: do you think he was trying to save himself? I

741
00:37:32,170 --> 00:37:33,810
Speaker 1: thought he was trying to save himself a bit, but

742
00:37:33,850 --> 00:37:36,210
Speaker 1: I think it's true. And you know how you were like,

743
00:37:36,330 --> 00:37:37,690
Speaker 1: I wonder if the King's really in there and he's

744
00:37:37,710 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: always trying to done stuff to like keep Dorian safe.

745
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,660
Speaker 1: You were right. He has always done things that have

746
00:37:41,700 --> 00:37:44,620
Speaker 1: tried to keep Dorian somewhat safe at some point. He's

747
00:37:44,739 --> 00:37:48,170
Speaker 1: always done what he can. And, The reason why the

748
00:37:48,210 --> 00:37:53,089
Speaker 1: king got rid of magic is so Dorian could be safe. Yeah.

749
00:37:53,330 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 1: His family could be safe. And also just like the

750
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,740
Speaker 1: world could be safe because then it was so much

751
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: easier for the vow to sniff out all the magic

752
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: users and kill them and just like slaughter them while

753
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 1: magic was a thing. And now Solana's released it. And

754
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,500
Speaker 1: now she's released the magic. So they're going to be

755
00:38:08,660 --> 00:38:11,819
Speaker 1: so much easier to sniff out. So they've got this

756
00:38:11,860 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: fucking big ass wall. They're going to have to fight. Um,

757
00:38:15,230 --> 00:38:21,169
Speaker 1: And he actually says that he didn't kill Kael. Doesn't

758
00:38:21,210 --> 00:38:23,529
Speaker 1: know how he's still alive. He's broken, but not dead.

759
00:38:24,310 --> 00:38:28,469
Speaker 1: Then Dorian's like, don't listen to him. Fuck this guy.

760
00:38:28,530 --> 00:38:30,870
Speaker 1: Fuck this guy. And Aelin's kind of thinking like, I

761
00:38:30,890 --> 00:38:33,250
Speaker 1: don't know. It seems like he's not lying. And he goes, no,

762
00:38:33,290 --> 00:38:36,790
Speaker 1: fuck this guy. Fuck this guy. So then Dorian, he's

763
00:38:36,810 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: got raw, raw magic. Dorian's the most powerful person in

764
00:38:39,340 --> 00:38:41,989
Speaker 1: this book, I think. He's got proper raw magic. They

765
00:38:42,010 --> 00:38:43,850
Speaker 1: keep saying shit like that. Raw magic, he can do

766
00:38:43,870 --> 00:38:48,710
Speaker 1: whatever he wants, right? He, like, is a beast, obviously.

767
00:38:49,250 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 1: And he just, like, obliterates the entire glass castle. Like,

768
00:38:53,739 --> 00:38:57,540
Speaker 1: the whole thing. It's, like, humongous, right? Obliterates it, shatters

769
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,150
Speaker 1: it to pieces. And Aelin's like, holy shit. We got

770
00:39:01,190 --> 00:39:02,750
Speaker 1: Rowan up in the sky as a hawk and he's thinking,

771
00:39:02,810 --> 00:39:05,299
Speaker 1: holy fuck, there's like a wall of glass about to

772
00:39:05,410 --> 00:39:07,240
Speaker 1: flood the entire city. It's just going to kill everyone.

773
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,320
Speaker 1: So Aelin, she just like flames the fuck out of

774
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: it and melts it. So cool. And she turns it

775
00:39:12,739 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 1: into this massive just wall of glass and it supposedly

776
00:39:17,219 --> 00:39:22,310
Speaker 1: kills the king. And also supposedly, yeah, supposedly it kills

777
00:39:22,310 --> 00:39:25,590
Speaker 1: the king. You know what I'm saying? So that's one thing,

778
00:39:25,590 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 1: which was cool. But um yeah and then Aelin and

779
00:39:29,910 --> 00:39:32,980
Speaker 1: and Dorian are like both fucked from it they're both

780
00:39:33,020 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: anyway but pretty cool pretty cool you're saying supposedly he's

781
00:39:38,340 --> 00:39:39,940
Speaker 1: they keep saying the king's dead but I think it's

782
00:39:39,980 --> 00:39:42,140
Speaker 1: like is he okay you know what I'm saying supposedly

783
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: he's dead they say he's dead but is he is

784
00:39:44,660 --> 00:39:49,879
Speaker 1: he um and then Dor and then Selenor So there's

785
00:39:49,900 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: obviously a big crowd now around the castle and Selene,

786
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,570
Speaker 1: she gets up, ends up on the ground somehow. Gets up.

787
00:39:56,140 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 1: She's there with like Adion, fucking Rowan, blah, blah, blah.

788
00:40:00,219 --> 00:40:02,569
Speaker 1: And she talks to the city. She's like, my name's

789
00:40:02,620 --> 00:40:06,549
Speaker 1: Aelin Ashriver Galathineus. I'm the rightful queen of Tarasin and

790
00:40:06,790 --> 00:40:11,629
Speaker 1: I just killed your king. She says, me and my

791
00:40:11,710 --> 00:40:14,930
Speaker 1: court will be taking control of the city until Dorian,

792
00:40:15,010 --> 00:40:17,830
Speaker 1: your new king, feels as though he is ready. And

793
00:40:17,930 --> 00:40:19,819
Speaker 1: on my word, I will be giving it to him.

794
00:40:20,900 --> 00:40:22,899
Speaker 1: And then she goes on this whole speech of like,

795
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: everyone that has a slave, free him. If I know,

796
00:40:26,780 --> 00:40:28,660
Speaker 1: if I hear of someone without a slave, sorry, if

797
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,430
Speaker 1: I hear of someone with a slave, I'm coming for you.

798
00:40:32,469 --> 00:40:34,930
Speaker 1: She says, if any of you try to overthrow Dorian,

799
00:40:35,410 --> 00:40:38,489
Speaker 1: I'm coming for you. If any of you try to

800
00:40:38,530 --> 00:40:40,390
Speaker 1: do this, I'm coming for you. This, I'm coming for you.

801
00:40:40,650 --> 00:40:43,589
Speaker 1: She's like threatening the fuck out of the city. And

802
00:40:43,630 --> 00:40:47,420
Speaker 1: then they just like, she goes, well, no place like,

803
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: No place better to go apart from the fucking castle

804
00:40:49,940 --> 00:40:52,219
Speaker 1: we just overthrew. May as well go stay there. So

805
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,430
Speaker 1: then they go into the castle. She drops down. Balls

806
00:40:54,450 --> 00:40:56,410
Speaker 1: her eyes out. Balls her eyes out.

807
00:40:56,910 --> 00:40:59,350
Speaker 3: When you say the glass castle's gone, where are they going?

808
00:41:00,010 --> 00:41:02,790
Speaker 1: Inside the glass castle, the glass castle was built outside

809
00:41:02,830 --> 00:41:05,069
Speaker 1: of the original stone castle. And that's still there? That's

810
00:41:05,090 --> 00:41:05,370
Speaker 1: still there.

811
00:41:05,390 --> 00:41:07,069
Speaker 3: I thought it was all obliterated and there was just

812
00:41:07,130 --> 00:41:09,950
Speaker 3: nothing there. So the stone castle, I think, is still

813
00:41:09,989 --> 00:41:11,879
Speaker 3: relatively large, but the glass castle is huge.

814
00:41:12,010 --> 00:41:17,280
Speaker 1: Right. So interesting. Pretty cool. Yeah, see? But, okay. Let's

815
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: go now. Oh, we got some fucking Manon chapters. That

816
00:41:21,620 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: was like story. That was the story we didn't get.

817
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,820
Speaker 1: Something that was really cool is there's a little Manon

818
00:41:27,860 --> 00:41:29,770
Speaker 1: chapter in all that. I just talked about, there was

819
00:41:29,790 --> 00:41:32,650
Speaker 1: a little Manon like dialogue moment, but I didn't, I

820
00:41:32,670 --> 00:41:34,390
Speaker 1: just like went over it. They were flying back from

821
00:41:34,430 --> 00:41:37,549
Speaker 1: Rift Halt back to Morath, her and Astrum. And she

822
00:41:37,710 --> 00:41:40,670
Speaker 1: feels the magic come back. And she says, it just feels,

823
00:41:40,730 --> 00:41:42,650
Speaker 1: she's like, oh my God, I'm immortal again. I can

824
00:41:42,690 --> 00:41:47,130
Speaker 1: feel it. Has like a big Yahoo moment. Anyway, We

825
00:41:47,590 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 1: are back at Morath and Vernon goes to visit Elide

826
00:41:49,860 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: now that magic is freed to see what happened. If

827
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,219
Speaker 1: the witch blood in her is awoken type shit. She's

828
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,219
Speaker 1: trying to get out, can't get out. Manon returns. She's

829
00:41:59,260 --> 00:42:01,770
Speaker 1: in her room and she's like, where's Elide? And then

830
00:42:01,810 --> 00:42:03,190
Speaker 1: she starts to say herself, oh, you know, she's probably

831
00:42:03,210 --> 00:42:05,629
Speaker 1: spying on anyone that can help her do anything. You know,

832
00:42:05,650 --> 00:42:08,450
Speaker 1: she's a good spy. Then she realizes that her scent

833
00:42:08,510 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 1: is very stale in her room. She's like, she hasn't

834
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,260
Speaker 1: been in here for ages. She's wigging out. She's like, fuck,

835
00:42:14,300 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: she really wanted to go home and sleep for like

836
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 1: three days. And she's like, fuck, I gotta go fucking

837
00:42:17,980 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: save a lead. She goes, she gets the 13 and

838
00:42:22,489 --> 00:42:24,690
Speaker 1: there's like three different sets of dungeons in Morath. I

839
00:42:24,690 --> 00:42:26,590
Speaker 1: didn't realize how big Morath is. It's like a massive,

840
00:42:26,690 --> 00:42:30,770
Speaker 1: massive fortress. And so they're whipping through the dungeons, all

841
00:42:30,790 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 1: the fucking 13. They're whipping through the dungeons, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

842
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 1: They get in finally, door opens, Manon, Manon there saves

843
00:42:38,820 --> 00:42:41,700
Speaker 1: a lead. Alid, come here. Let's fucking go. What she

844
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: catches happening, what happens actually is she catches Alid being drawn.

845
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: She just got taken out of her dungeons by two

846
00:42:48,180 --> 00:42:51,050
Speaker 1: Valk soldiers. They put a robe on her. She's buck

847
00:42:51,110 --> 00:42:53,410
Speaker 1: ass naked underneath. They put a robe on her and

848
00:42:53,430 --> 00:42:55,270
Speaker 1: then like her tit falls out or some shit. And like,

849
00:42:55,310 --> 00:42:57,890
Speaker 1: it's like all real. It's like real bad. And Manon

850
00:42:57,910 --> 00:43:00,750
Speaker 1: walks in on it. And she just says, the two

851
00:43:00,790 --> 00:43:03,870
Speaker 1: Valk soldiers, she's like, you guys are fucking dead. She

852
00:43:03,950 --> 00:43:10,020
Speaker 1: apparently arm through the neck, grabs the spine, pulls it out. Yeah.

853
00:43:10,219 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 1: And then just like fucking cuts the head off the

854
00:43:11,980 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: other one with her nails. Good. And then she goes

855
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:18,259
Speaker 1: to take a lead. She's like, okay, we got to go.

856
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:19,380
Speaker 1: You got to run. We're going to get out of here.

857
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 1: And they run into Kaltain. Lady Kaltain's down there and

858
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: she goes, you're never going to get out of here,

859
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,180
Speaker 1: but I know what to do. They only ever see

860
00:43:31,260 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 1: what they want to see. And so she changes clothes

861
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: with a lead. She goes, this isn't going to work.

862
00:43:35,700 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: I look nothing like you. But then she remembers back

863
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: to when she ran into Verne and talked to Kaltain

864
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 1: and he goes, you guys could be sisters. You and

865
00:43:43,180 --> 00:43:44,980
Speaker 1: Kaltain could be sisters. And she's like, maybe we look

866
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 1: more alike than we think. And Kaltain goes, yes, trust me.

867
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:52,230
Speaker 1: And then Kaltain cuts her fucking wrist open and she hands,

868
00:43:52,690 --> 00:43:56,890
Speaker 1: if wrapped in fabric, she hands something to Alide. And

869
00:43:56,930 --> 00:44:00,969
Speaker 1: it's a fucking word key. Duke Parrington has put a

870
00:44:01,050 --> 00:44:04,509
Speaker 1: word key inside of Kaltain. So now we know where

871
00:44:04,550 --> 00:44:08,270
Speaker 1: two of them are. Where's the third? Do we know? Anyway,

872
00:44:09,150 --> 00:44:14,140
Speaker 1: she's like, don't fucking lose that, BT dubs. So then Manon, Astran,

873
00:44:14,300 --> 00:44:17,580
Speaker 1: they take a lead out of the dungeons. And Kaltain,

874
00:44:18,020 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: she's kind of like, oh, I've really just been waiting

875
00:44:22,780 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: for this moment. Magic's been fully released. I've got no

876
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: demon inside me. And she's given up on life, but

877
00:44:28,420 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 1: she hasn't given up trying to save at least some people.

878
00:44:32,219 --> 00:44:38,049
Speaker 1: She pretty much desolates with her fire. Desolates Like half

879
00:44:38,090 --> 00:44:41,150
Speaker 1: of the Morath. Half of it, right? All the covens

880
00:44:41,170 --> 00:44:43,469
Speaker 1: that were having the babies, the Valk babies, kills them,

881
00:44:43,489 --> 00:44:45,110
Speaker 1: puts them out of their misery. All the babies that

882
00:44:45,130 --> 00:44:47,790
Speaker 1: had been born, kills them. Gone. All the Valk demons,

883
00:44:48,150 --> 00:44:51,710
Speaker 1: fucking that were in Morath at least, gone-skis. Half the

884
00:44:51,750 --> 00:44:56,070
Speaker 1: fucking keep, Morath keep, gone. But Kautain also dies at

885
00:44:56,110 --> 00:44:59,569
Speaker 1: the same time. Apparently. I thought she was dead.

886
00:44:59,630 --> 00:45:00,050
Speaker 2: Surely.

887
00:45:00,170 --> 00:45:03,350
Speaker 1: Apparently she's dead. She sacrificed herself. And while all of

888
00:45:03,370 --> 00:45:06,980
Speaker 1: this happened... Manon and the 13 take a lead and

889
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: they fly away. But the good thing about that is

890
00:45:11,219 --> 00:45:17,460
Speaker 1: that Kaltain killing everyone means that no one's going to

891
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:18,900
Speaker 1: be able to say that Manon just went down and

892
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: saved a lead. So happy fucking days.

893
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 3: When they are flying away, does Manon say to a lead,

894
00:45:25,940 --> 00:45:28,259
Speaker 3: a lead's like, oh shit, you're a beast again.

895
00:45:28,300 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 1: What happened?

896
00:45:28,700 --> 00:45:31,630
Speaker 3: And then she goes, oh yeah, Aelin Galathineus fucking released magic.

897
00:45:31,670 --> 00:45:33,989
Speaker 1: And she goes, Aelin Galathineus. Yes, she does say that.

898
00:45:34,050 --> 00:45:37,250
Speaker 1: Aelin Galathineus. She says, Aelin Galathanius has released magic. And

899
00:45:37,270 --> 00:45:43,489
Speaker 1: then she's like, what? She goes, that's it. Your queen's alive, broski. Oh,

900
00:45:43,530 --> 00:45:46,089
Speaker 1: I forgot to say ages ago that Rowan and Selene kiss.

901
00:45:46,810 --> 00:45:48,190
Speaker 1: There was one kiss and they didn't want to do

902
00:45:48,210 --> 00:45:48,489
Speaker 1: it anymore.

903
00:45:48,530 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 3: No, Selene was cheeky as fuck. She goes like, survive tomorrow.

904
00:45:51,890 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 3: You can have the rest.

905
00:45:53,110 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, that's right. They full like kiss. And he's like,

906
00:45:55,380 --> 00:45:56,700
Speaker 1: oh my God, I want to fuck you. And she goes.

907
00:45:57,270 --> 00:45:59,810
Speaker 1: If we survive, you can have the rest. Yeah. I

908
00:45:59,830 --> 00:46:01,930
Speaker 1: forgot about that. Don't cock-tease us like that, though. It

909
00:46:01,950 --> 00:46:03,910
Speaker 1: better be a sex scene after. Oh, fuck.

910
00:46:03,989 --> 00:46:08,470
Speaker 3: I forgot about that.

911
00:46:08,489 --> 00:46:14,340
Speaker 1: So, we are now in the... We learned that Lorcan

912
00:46:14,380 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 1: took the ring back from Selina while she was unconscious. What? Oh. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

913
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,620
Speaker 1: Selina's wigging out. She wakes up, right? She's been asleep

914
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 1: for like three days. And Rowan's in her room. She's

915
00:46:29,580 --> 00:46:33,140
Speaker 1: wigging out. That's when they kiss. Yep. But she also

916
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,140
Speaker 1: is like, oh, where'd the fucking, oh, that's right. She

917
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,919
Speaker 1: used the fucking ring. And that's why the king couldn't

918
00:46:38,940 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: kill her. And also why like Dorian's magic couldn't do like,

919
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, all that type of shit. Okay. Anyway.

920
00:46:44,580 --> 00:46:50,300
Speaker 1: So she realizes the ring's gone and thinks that Lorcan

921
00:46:50,340 --> 00:46:52,930
Speaker 1: took it from her while she was unconscious before she

922
00:46:52,969 --> 00:46:56,020
Speaker 1: woke up. So Lorcan has a ring back. So if

923
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:57,700
Speaker 1: he has it back, that's why. We don't know if

924
00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: he has it back. Is Lorcan good or bad?

925
00:46:58,940 --> 00:47:02,290
Speaker 3: Because did we find out why he came to help

926
00:47:02,390 --> 00:47:04,150
Speaker 3: Rowan and Adion?

927
00:47:05,210 --> 00:47:07,870
Speaker 1: Honor? Honor. He felt bad. I don't know.

928
00:47:08,050 --> 00:47:10,150
Speaker 3: Or did he figure out that the amulet or the

929
00:47:10,190 --> 00:47:11,490
Speaker 3: word key or whatever was fake?

930
00:47:11,670 --> 00:47:12,169
Speaker 1: I don't know.

931
00:47:12,230 --> 00:47:13,670
Speaker 3: And then he's like, oh shit. And then he's like, oh,

932
00:47:13,670 --> 00:47:14,629
Speaker 3: I might as well help you while I'm here.

933
00:47:14,770 --> 00:47:17,090
Speaker 1: I just don't fucking know. I genuinely don't know. Someone

934
00:47:17,130 --> 00:47:19,529
Speaker 1: please in the comments. Help us out. Someone sent a

935
00:47:19,550 --> 00:47:23,800
Speaker 1: picture of Lorcan and that helped. Yeah? Sexy? Yeah. Yeah.

936
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:31,319
Speaker 1: All right. Dorian visits Kael for the first time. Yeah.

937
00:47:31,580 --> 00:47:38,170
Speaker 1: All right. And what we find out is that the

938
00:47:38,250 --> 00:47:41,610
Speaker 1: king actually broke Kael's spine from the waist down. Kael

939
00:47:41,790 --> 00:47:48,049
Speaker 1: is paraplegic. Yeah. And he's like, fuck. He's all pissed off.

940
00:47:48,430 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: He goes, can no one heal me? Dorian said, Rowan.

941
00:47:52,219 --> 00:47:53,460
Speaker 1: Didn't want to do what he thought he could make.

942
00:47:53,989 --> 00:47:56,069
Speaker 1: He did his best he could. Without Rowan, you'd be

943
00:47:56,090 --> 00:47:58,969
Speaker 1: a quadriplegic. But he didn't want to fuck with the

944
00:47:59,010 --> 00:48:01,549
Speaker 1: legs because he said, I don't know what I'm doing

945
00:48:01,570 --> 00:48:04,009
Speaker 1: here and I don't want to make it worse. And

946
00:48:04,030 --> 00:48:07,830
Speaker 1: so then Dorian says... I'd be like, have a crack, brother. Yeah,

947
00:48:08,230 --> 00:48:13,529
Speaker 1: Dorian's like... But there's no more healers. We have no

948
00:48:13,570 --> 00:48:15,770
Speaker 1: more magical healers because obviously my dad killed them all.

949
00:48:16,770 --> 00:48:19,859
Speaker 1: So you're going to have to go to fucking... There's

950
00:48:19,890 --> 00:48:27,860
Speaker 1: a southern continent. Where, remember in Assassin's Blade, the woman

951
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:30,620
Speaker 1: that worked at like that pig pony, you know, whatever,

952
00:48:30,660 --> 00:48:32,830
Speaker 1: like the white pig. Yeah, the nurse. The one that

953
00:48:32,870 --> 00:48:35,610
Speaker 1: wanted to go train at like where the best human

954
00:48:35,670 --> 00:48:37,529
Speaker 1: healers train. They're not magic healers, they're human healers, but

955
00:48:37,550 --> 00:48:38,890
Speaker 1: they are the best in the world. I remember you

956
00:48:38,910 --> 00:48:41,210
Speaker 1: saying she'll come back into it. Obviously, she's coming back

957
00:48:41,250 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 1: into it.

958
00:48:41,630 --> 00:48:41,830
Speaker 2: Yeah.

959
00:48:41,969 --> 00:48:43,890
Speaker 1: So, Dorian says, you know, you're going to have to

960
00:48:44,630 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: go there. And... find a healer that can maybe heal you.

961
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 1: And Kael's like, well, I'm not doing it unless they

962
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,259
Speaker 1: know they can heal me. And Dorian's like, it's a

963
00:48:52,260 --> 00:48:53,620
Speaker 1: risk you're going to have to take, my bro. It's

964
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,030
Speaker 1: a risk you're going to have to take. And then,

965
00:48:57,620 --> 00:48:59,590
Speaker 1: so then he says, well, at least you have a

966
00:48:59,630 --> 00:49:03,150
Speaker 1: great guide. And then Nezrin's at the door. And Nezrin's

967
00:49:03,210 --> 00:49:05,230
Speaker 1: from the southern continent. He says, well, at least you

968
00:49:05,250 --> 00:49:07,930
Speaker 1: have a great guide. And then Dorian leaves. And he says,

969
00:49:08,410 --> 00:49:09,989
Speaker 1: and I need you to get up and get the

970
00:49:10,050 --> 00:49:12,509
Speaker 1: fuck out of here. Go fix your legs because to

971
00:49:12,550 --> 00:49:14,549
Speaker 1: be the king's hand, we're going to have a lot

972
00:49:14,570 --> 00:49:17,170
Speaker 1: of work to do. Kael's like, what? I can't be

973
00:49:17,190 --> 00:49:19,230
Speaker 1: the king's hand. And Dorian's like, if I don't want

974
00:49:19,270 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 1: to be king. you're fucking gonna do this shit with

975
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,540
Speaker 1: me you're the one that freed me you fucker the

976
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 1: boys are back yeah so i was kind of like

977
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 1: that's a hateful union anywho nezrin sits down she's like

978
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 1: kind of crying and he goes and she's like um

979
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,980
Speaker 1: uh what is it they make a joke is it

980
00:49:38,020 --> 00:49:41,410
Speaker 1: here Basically, there's a joke. Right now, Nezrin is the

981
00:49:41,450 --> 00:49:43,669
Speaker 1: temporary captain of the guard and Kael is the king's hand.

982
00:49:44,850 --> 00:49:46,710
Speaker 1: And also the place where the real healers are is

983
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,450
Speaker 1: called Tora Sesme in the southern continent. But they make

984
00:49:49,489 --> 00:49:53,460
Speaker 1: like a fucking joke. Kael's like, well, I did promise

985
00:49:53,500 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 1: I'd get out. I guess I... He says something like,

986
00:49:56,140 --> 00:49:59,140
Speaker 1: I guess I didn't promise I'd walk out. Yeah, he

987
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,900
Speaker 1: said something, the clock of not walking. No, no, no.

988
00:50:02,300 --> 00:50:04,880
Speaker 1: Here's what I think happened is when she says promise,

989
00:50:04,900 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 1: she says promise you'll get out of the castle alive.

990
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,060
Speaker 1: He says, I promise. And then she sits down and

991
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,859
Speaker 1: she's crying and he goes, well, I didn't promise I'd

992
00:50:12,900 --> 00:50:15,010
Speaker 1: walk out. And then she starts crying more and he goes,

993
00:50:15,050 --> 00:50:16,469
Speaker 1: but better not make any jokes. But I thought that

994
00:50:16,489 --> 00:50:24,090
Speaker 1: was funny. Chapter 85. Manon and the 13 take a

995
00:50:24,170 --> 00:50:28,029
Speaker 1: lead into the forest, a vocal forest. That's where she

996
00:50:28,070 --> 00:50:32,500
Speaker 1: tells her the king is dead and Aelin Ashriver Galathineus

997
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 1: is alive. She says, I can't take you any further

998
00:50:35,100 --> 00:50:38,980
Speaker 1: from here, but here's some clothes, here's some money. Go

999
00:50:39,020 --> 00:50:42,799
Speaker 1: north and find your queen. Then she says, if you

1000
00:50:42,820 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 1: better not hope that we meet each other in the battlefield.

1001
00:50:44,930 --> 00:50:46,569
Speaker 1: And I was like, what? Madden, I thought you were good.

1002
00:50:46,590 --> 00:50:48,430
Speaker 1: I was like, what do you mean? I thought you

1003
00:50:48,450 --> 00:50:50,969
Speaker 1: were fucking good, Madden. Also just like go on your

1004
00:50:50,989 --> 00:50:52,850
Speaker 1: own and figure it out. Yeah, I think so. Yeah.

1005
00:50:52,870 --> 00:50:54,850
Speaker 1: But I also kind of thought as well, if I

1006
00:50:54,890 --> 00:50:57,890
Speaker 1: was a lead, the witches have just got all their

1007
00:50:57,930 --> 00:51:02,240
Speaker 1: power back. I've figured out how to be a witch. Yeah.

1008
00:51:03,020 --> 00:51:05,980
Speaker 1: Go be useful. Yeah. They also had the wyverns. Why

1009
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,529
Speaker 1: don't they just fly her over to Riffhold? And fly back.

1010
00:51:08,550 --> 00:51:10,190
Speaker 1: Why don't they just fly her to Terrace and... Yeah.

1011
00:51:11,030 --> 00:51:12,550
Speaker 1: I don't know why she can't go any further. Yeah.

1012
00:51:12,570 --> 00:51:15,390
Speaker 1: Because she was just there. She was literally... And... It

1013
00:51:15,410 --> 00:51:17,250
Speaker 1: takes you a day to fly to Riftholt. Fly an

1014
00:51:17,290 --> 00:51:18,950
Speaker 1: extra day, day and a half to Terrace and drop

1015
00:51:18,969 --> 00:51:20,489
Speaker 1: her off at Orenth so she's waiting for Aelin when

1016
00:51:20,510 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 1: she gets there. And Aelin likes the witches. She does now. Yeah,

1017
00:51:23,820 --> 00:51:24,060
Speaker 1: she does.

1018
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:24,940
Speaker 3: Because of that.

1019
00:51:25,739 --> 00:51:32,860
Speaker 1: Weird. Anywho. Unless... Anywho. Is Madden's grandma still alive? Yes. Yeah.

1020
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:34,410
Speaker 1: It must be something to do with that. And she

1021
00:51:34,469 --> 00:51:38,569
Speaker 1: also just got her fucking... Magic back. Yeah. So got

1022
00:51:38,590 --> 00:51:41,630
Speaker 1: to keep that in mind. Chapter 87, Duke Parrington and

1023
00:51:41,670 --> 00:51:44,290
Speaker 1: Vernon both survived at Morath and still plan to fight.

1024
00:51:44,989 --> 00:51:51,160
Speaker 1: Chapter 88, Selina is talking to Kale and she's like,

1025
00:51:51,739 --> 00:51:54,360
Speaker 1: you know, I'm happy, I'm glad Dorian and Kale are

1026
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 1: both there. And she says, you know, I know you

1027
00:51:59,140 --> 00:52:01,620
Speaker 1: have to go to Southern Continent, fix your legs. You know,

1028
00:52:01,820 --> 00:52:06,569
Speaker 1: we need you back. She says, while you're there, I

1029
00:52:06,730 --> 00:52:10,850
Speaker 1: need you to try and get friendly with the royal

1030
00:52:10,910 --> 00:52:14,410
Speaker 1: family of the southern continent because we're going to need

1031
00:52:14,430 --> 00:52:17,049
Speaker 1: all the help we can get. And here's something, right?

1032
00:52:17,070 --> 00:52:22,980
Speaker 1: I have a prediction. Kael, his new, so the only

1033
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:24,739
Speaker 1: reason Kael has agreed to do it is because he

1034
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 1: looks at Dorian and Dorian nods, right? And I understand

1035
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 1: like you're the king's hand, right? But like, I have

1036
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,850
Speaker 1: a feeling he's going to have more moments in the

1037
00:52:36,890 --> 00:52:39,090
Speaker 1: series where we're going to be like, for fuck's sakes, Kael.

1038
00:52:39,750 --> 00:52:42,210
Speaker 1: Make a decision for yourself and don't make every decision

1039
00:52:42,290 --> 00:52:44,670
Speaker 1: based off your loyalty to the fucking king. But everyone

1040
00:52:44,770 --> 00:52:49,049
Speaker 1: says they love Kael now. Surely he's changed. So hopefully. Surely. Yeah,

1041
00:52:49,190 --> 00:52:50,969
Speaker 1: I hope so. Anyway, I was just like, fuck. He

1042
00:52:51,010 --> 00:52:53,770
Speaker 1: looks at Dorian for permission. I was like, for fuck's sakes, Kael.

1043
00:52:53,870 --> 00:52:56,570
Speaker 1: Back to his old roots already. For fuck's sakes. Anywho.

1044
00:52:58,590 --> 00:53:04,089
Speaker 1: And then everyone... is headed back and Lysandra's with them.

1045
00:53:04,150 --> 00:53:06,230
Speaker 1: And sorry, you're right. This is like when she says,

1046
00:53:06,250 --> 00:53:07,330
Speaker 1: you know, there's a bit of land up there you

1047
00:53:07,370 --> 00:53:11,500
Speaker 1: can have. It needs a lady. Woo-hoo, woo-hoo. And they

1048
00:53:11,540 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: get there. Then there's a little scene, a random little scene. Dorian,

1049
00:53:15,780 --> 00:53:17,460
Speaker 1: so Selene and everyone have left. They're on their way

1050
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,930
Speaker 1: back to Terrasin. And there's a little cheeky scene where

1051
00:53:21,050 --> 00:53:23,230
Speaker 1: Dorian's like looking out the window. He's looking up the

1052
00:53:23,250 --> 00:53:25,290
Speaker 1: very top of this big wall of glass that Selene

1053
00:53:25,310 --> 00:53:27,089
Speaker 1: made where the castle was turned into this big wall

1054
00:53:27,110 --> 00:53:29,210
Speaker 1: of glass. And he's like sort of daydreaming. And then

1055
00:53:29,230 --> 00:53:32,190
Speaker 1: he sees, sat up, On the top of the glass

1056
00:53:33,590 --> 00:53:40,370
Speaker 1: is a wyvern with a very beautiful woman of moonlight hair. Manon.

1057
00:53:40,390 --> 00:53:44,830
Speaker 1: So they didn't talk, but she just flies away. They

1058
00:53:44,850 --> 00:53:46,069
Speaker 1: just nodded at each other or some shit and then

1059
00:53:46,090 --> 00:53:47,290
Speaker 1: she flies away. Did she want to say that Dorian

1060
00:53:47,310 --> 00:53:51,339
Speaker 1: was free? I guess. Because she didn't know. Also. Are

1061
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:55,359
Speaker 1: her and Dorian mated? Confirmation that they're going to be together, right,

1062
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,900
Speaker 1: is the fact that Astrid fell in love with a

1063
00:53:57,900 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 1: human and Dorian's technically a human but has magic, right? Also,

1064
00:54:02,380 --> 00:54:07,020
Speaker 1: when Astrid's done telling her story, Manon asks her, what

1065
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:10,359
Speaker 1: was it like? And Astrid's like, what? And she goes,

1066
00:54:10,620 --> 00:54:14,180
Speaker 1: being in love. Oh. And this is after, I think

1067
00:54:14,219 --> 00:54:15,700
Speaker 1: she fell in love at first sight with the fucking

1068
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,779
Speaker 1: Prince Dorian. Yeah, and that's why he came out for

1069
00:54:18,820 --> 00:54:21,219
Speaker 1: a little second. That's their major. Yeah, that's correct. The

1070
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:26,280
Speaker 1: mating bond brought them out. Yeah, I agree. Book ends with,

1071
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:32,830
Speaker 1: they're all, Walking along, Aelin and crew, they crest a hill,

1072
00:54:33,450 --> 00:54:36,710
Speaker 1: and Adion goes, hey, see that rock? We passed that rock.

1073
00:54:37,710 --> 00:54:40,290
Speaker 1: We're in Tarasin. They pass that rock, and they're in Tarasin,

1074
00:54:40,310 --> 00:54:44,330
Speaker 1: and the book ends. Good book. Good book. Great book.

1075
00:54:44,390 --> 00:54:46,350
Speaker 1: Good book. Very good book. I'm very entertained.

1076
00:54:46,670 --> 00:54:50,779
Speaker 3: Great book. Overall feeling, honestly, I think this might be

1077
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:51,580
Speaker 3: the best book so far.

1078
00:54:51,580 --> 00:54:56,080
Speaker 1: 100%. Easy. Next book? It's supposed to be wicked.

1079
00:54:56,780 --> 00:54:58,460
Speaker 3: It feels like there's going to be so much action.

1080
00:54:58,969 --> 00:55:00,370
Speaker 1: I'm loving these storylines.

1081
00:55:00,790 --> 00:55:05,070
Speaker 3: Now we've got a Kale POV, Selena or Aileen, Manon,

1082
00:55:05,830 --> 00:55:06,790
Speaker 3: and then also Dorian.

1083
00:55:07,110 --> 00:55:10,989
Speaker 1: There's four different versions of shit. Here's the thing is

1084
00:55:13,219 --> 00:55:16,319
Speaker 1: I have a feeling that the reason why people do

1085
00:55:16,380 --> 00:55:18,880
Speaker 1: a tandem read for the next two books, if you

1086
00:55:18,900 --> 00:55:20,359
Speaker 1: wanted to do the tandem read, I don't think we're

1087
00:55:20,380 --> 00:55:21,640
Speaker 1: going to do it. We're going to go for it

1088
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 1: and just do book back-to-back and not tandem read them. So,

1089
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,620
Speaker 1: the next two books, they are both happening at the

1090
00:55:28,660 --> 00:55:31,430
Speaker 1: same time. Yeah. And that's why people tandem read them. So,

1091
00:55:31,489 --> 00:55:35,450
Speaker 1: what I think is the next book is Aelin and crew.

1092
00:55:36,130 --> 00:55:39,410
Speaker 1: And the book after that is Kael, Dorian, Nesrin. Yep.

1093
00:55:39,650 --> 00:55:41,989
Speaker 1: And we're not going to get their POVs at all

1094
00:55:42,370 --> 00:55:44,690
Speaker 1: or maybe a very little bit in the next book.

1095
00:55:45,250 --> 00:55:47,219
Speaker 1: The next book is going to be all Aelin, maybe

1096
00:55:47,260 --> 00:55:49,920
Speaker 1: some Manon, obviously. But you know what I mean?

1097
00:55:49,940 --> 00:55:51,739
Speaker 3: Manon's storyline seems to go with Dorian now.

1098
00:55:52,140 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, maybe not. So, that's... And so, then... the

1099
00:55:56,380 --> 00:55:59,140
Speaker 1: second to last book is going to be Kael going

1100
00:55:59,180 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: to the southern continent and getting his legs fixed, finding

1101
00:56:01,580 --> 00:56:05,020
Speaker 1: the healer that was sent to the Tora Sesme by

1102
00:56:05,060 --> 00:56:09,140
Speaker 1: Selene and then, you know, getting friendly with the king

1103
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,050
Speaker 1: and queen of wherever they are, the southern city continent.

1104
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:17,350
Speaker 1: So that's interesting. But I don't even know because I

1105
00:56:17,390 --> 00:56:19,810
Speaker 1: didn't think the king was, I didn't expect Duke Parrington

1106
00:56:19,830 --> 00:56:22,130
Speaker 1: to be the actual evil one. I didn't expect the

1107
00:56:22,150 --> 00:56:24,230
Speaker 1: king to die. I didn't think the king would die.

1108
00:56:24,370 --> 00:56:25,590
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going to happen.

1109
00:56:26,930 --> 00:56:33,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Duke Parrington is now the evil. The one

1110
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:34,250
Speaker 3: that they've got to.

1111
00:56:34,260 --> 00:56:34,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1112
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Solana's going to go back to.

1113
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,739
Speaker 1: What's the guy? I don't know who it's going to

1114
00:56:41,780 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: happen to. Yeah. It could go anywhere.

1115
00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 3: Like Lorcan, I still don't understand his character in this.

1116
00:56:50,660 --> 00:56:58,150
Speaker 1: Lorcan is just a beast. And he's going to just

1117
00:56:58,210 --> 00:57:01,370
Speaker 1: end up fighting for Derrison. I know it. It has

1118
00:57:01,410 --> 00:57:01,770
Speaker 1: to happen.

1119
00:57:01,910 --> 00:57:03,390
Speaker 3: He teams up with him and Rowan and we'll come

1120
00:57:03,430 --> 00:57:03,890
Speaker 3: boys again.

1121
00:57:03,910 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. Also, the whole Cordray, surely. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1122
00:57:08,940 --> 00:57:09,360
Speaker 4: Shit.

1123
00:57:11,340 --> 00:57:13,180
Speaker 1: Any other predictions? I don't really have.

1124
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:13,800
Speaker 4: No way.

1125
00:57:14,580 --> 00:57:17,640
Speaker 1: Any other predictions? So we've said that Mountain and Dorian

1126
00:57:17,660 --> 00:57:19,910
Speaker 1: are going to be mated. If not mated, definitely together.

1127
00:57:23,050 --> 00:57:25,990
Speaker 1: And he's going to grant them back. the witch's lands

1128
00:57:26,270 --> 00:57:28,790
Speaker 1: or the witches are going to be welcome in Ardalan.

1129
00:57:29,450 --> 00:57:30,490
Speaker 1: And that's going to be their lands.

1130
00:57:30,930 --> 00:57:33,930
Speaker 3: The way Madden acting seems like she doesn't want to

1131
00:57:34,050 --> 00:57:35,610
Speaker 3: like align with.

1132
00:57:35,550 --> 00:57:40,210
Speaker 1: Anyone to me. She's going to kill her grandmother. Oh yeah.

1133
00:57:40,230 --> 00:57:45,940
Speaker 1: She'll kill her grandmother. So I have this feeling that Maeve,

1134
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:50,020
Speaker 1: Queen Maeve over in fucking Dorinel. Yeah. And the Wendland.

1135
00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,260
Speaker 1: Aelin's going to kill her. I just have this feeling

1136
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,190
Speaker 1: she still is part of the story. I think Aelin's

1137
00:57:55,210 --> 00:57:56,550
Speaker 1: got a killer. Yeah.

1138
00:57:56,950 --> 00:58:00,930
Speaker 3: And then Lorcan helps infiltrate her because he realizes she's

1139
00:58:00,950 --> 00:58:02,250
Speaker 3: actually evil and teams up with him.

1140
00:58:02,990 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 1: Oh, wait a second. Wait a second. So, wait a second.

1141
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:17,980
Speaker 1: Is there not mention of Adion's dad? We missed something.

1142
00:58:18,020 --> 00:58:20,200
Speaker 1: I swear there was a crazy mention of Adion's dad.

1143
00:58:21,620 --> 00:58:23,580
Speaker 3: That was before that though.

1144
00:58:24,350 --> 00:58:25,170
Speaker 1: The bomb drop.

1145
00:58:26,090 --> 00:58:27,130
Speaker 3: That was in the last chapters.

1146
00:58:27,370 --> 00:58:31,310
Speaker 1: So we know that Gavriel was Adion's dad, right? And

1147
00:58:31,370 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 1: then we know... I swear there was a mention of

1148
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,560
Speaker 1: Adion's dad in the fact that Gavriel was like here.

1149
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:41,260
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong.

1150
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:44,780
Speaker 3: The only bit I remember is Selander goes, oh yeah,

1151
00:58:45,060 --> 00:58:48,220
Speaker 3: Adion's acting as king or whatever and he's soaking it up.

1152
00:58:48,260 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 1: Wow, I'm fucking sick. Yeah, he was just acting as...

1153
00:58:52,150 --> 00:58:53,970
Speaker 1: whatever it's called. He was just put in charge of

1154
00:58:53,990 --> 00:58:56,050
Speaker 1: like the city. And he's just soaking up.

1155
00:58:56,090 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1156
00:58:56,540 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 1: He's like soaking it up. Yeah. Like being mad annoying.

1157
00:58:59,700 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 1: But yeah. Okay. Any predictions? It's been hard. I'm finding

1158
00:59:01,860 --> 00:59:02,660
Speaker 1: it hard to make predictions.

1159
00:59:03,220 --> 00:59:06,310
Speaker 3: I'm finding it hard and we're locking in book of time.

1160
00:59:06,330 --> 00:59:07,690
Speaker 3: So it's, what's the next one?

1161
00:59:07,710 --> 00:59:09,510
Speaker 1: Sorry. I actually don't remember. I don't know what the

1162
00:59:09,530 --> 00:59:11,410
Speaker 1: next one's called. but here's something I wanted to talk about.

1163
00:59:11,690 --> 00:59:13,730
Speaker 1: Empire of Storm. And then the next one after that

1164
00:59:13,770 --> 00:59:17,510
Speaker 1: is Tower of Dawn. And then Kingdom of Ash. Yeah. Okay, question.

1165
00:59:18,260 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 1: Darcy's rolling around over there in the corner. Thoughts on... Okay,

1166
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:27,060
Speaker 1: genuine thoughts on whether or not we need to finish

1167
00:59:27,140 --> 00:59:30,370
Speaker 1: this series before ACOTAR comes out. Here's the thing, right?

1168
00:59:31,630 --> 00:59:33,220
Speaker 1: You were saying at one point that you think as

1169
00:59:33,260 --> 00:59:34,860
Speaker 1: soon as Akita comes out, we have to read it.

1170
00:59:36,220 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 1: Here's one thing. You're in Bali when it comes out

1171
00:59:41,100 --> 00:59:42,500
Speaker 1: and don't get home for like a couple of weeks.

1172
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:46,830
Speaker 1: Would we still be able to ride the wave of

1173
00:59:47,750 --> 00:59:51,030
Speaker 1: not reading it until we finish this and trying to

1174
00:59:51,070 --> 00:59:53,010
Speaker 1: maybe do like- When's it come out? The 18th? We

1175
00:59:53,050 --> 00:59:55,210
Speaker 1: try and do like half a book per episode or something.

1176
00:59:55,230 --> 00:59:58,490
Speaker 1: It comes out on the 27th of October. Basically in

1177
00:59:58,570 --> 00:59:59,910
Speaker 1: one month from the date of release.

1178
00:59:59,930 --> 01:00:02,110
Speaker 3: So we can finish Empire of Storms almost.

1179
01:00:02,870 --> 01:00:04,570
Speaker 1: We could make it so we definitely finish that.

1180
01:00:05,010 --> 01:00:08,150
Speaker 3: But then we still have two really big books. I'm

1181
01:00:08,230 --> 01:00:11,670
Speaker 3: torn because I would have liked to say no prior

1182
01:00:11,690 --> 01:00:13,410
Speaker 3: to finding out that it's basically a novella.

1183
01:00:13,690 --> 01:00:13,910
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1184
01:00:15,130 --> 01:00:17,010
Speaker 3: Because it's also like I want to enjoy this and

1185
01:00:17,030 --> 01:00:20,870
Speaker 3: I don't want to push it as well. But then

1186
01:00:20,930 --> 01:00:23,740
Speaker 3: also it's hard because half of my brain wants to

1187
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 3: think of this as a business decision which I would

1188
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,210
Speaker 3: say ride the rave wave of Akita and then the

1189
01:00:29,230 --> 01:00:31,210
Speaker 3: other half of me thinking of my heart says, let's

1190
01:00:31,230 --> 01:00:31,870
Speaker 3: just enjoy this.

1191
01:00:32,170 --> 01:00:35,930
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we'll, we will converse about this more. We'll

1192
01:00:35,950 --> 01:00:36,970
Speaker 1: get comments from you guys.

1193
01:00:37,290 --> 01:00:38,970
Speaker 3: If it was a full book of Akita, I would

1194
01:00:38,990 --> 01:00:40,480
Speaker 3: have said, fuck it. Let's drop this and go to that.

1195
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,660
Speaker 3: But it's not huge. It's 350 pages. But the only

1196
01:00:43,700 --> 01:00:47,560
Speaker 3: other thing we could do is like, we could just

1197
01:00:47,580 --> 01:00:48,820
Speaker 3: like two episodes.

1198
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:56,370
Speaker 1: We could just pause reading. So we'll finish reading. What's

1199
01:00:56,390 --> 01:00:58,590
Speaker 1: the next Empire of Storms? We'll finish Empire of Storms. Yeah.

1200
01:00:59,810 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 1: Then read Akatar. Then read the last two books of this.

1201
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: Which isn't bad. We can do what we want. We

1202
01:01:06,180 --> 01:01:11,140
Speaker 1: can do whatever we want. Yeah. We feel so much pressure. Yeah.

1203
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,620
Speaker 3: Resounding consensus has been don't do the tandem read.

1204
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,900
Speaker 1: That's what we're... We're not going to do the tandem read. Also,

1205
01:01:17,900 --> 01:01:20,050
Speaker 1: 350 pages. Do we do Akatar in one episode? Because

1206
01:01:20,070 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 1: that episode will go by. Do you do Akatar in

1207
01:01:23,580 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 1: one episode?

1208
01:01:23,900 --> 01:01:28,210
Speaker 3: Because I'm going to, I asked the baddies, get the

1209
01:01:28,390 --> 01:01:30,170
Speaker 3: audio book, but also I'm going to, I want to

1212
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:34,740
Speaker 3: Bali otherwise. So I'm just going to get it on Kindle.
